You could try and use the glu32 Xtra http://www.ravware.com/glu32.htm to access the Win api. I did a quick yahoo search and found this for Visual Basic: http://www.mvps.org/vbnet/index.html?code/network/macaddress.htm There is a glu32 xtra for the Mac as well, so It might be possible there as well. I dont know if this will work, but it might be a worth a try.

(xpost-ish) Asked this on Direct-L yesterday but no one seemed to have the answer I was looking for. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a means (ideally with an Xtra, not something like AppleScript or VBScript) to find out the hardware address of a given system's ethernet card. Bonus points for finding out things like CPU and HD serial numbers! I know it's doable in theory; I'm just wondering if anyone's actually managed it in practice. Thanks!
