Thanks Ton,
From reviewing the documentation, I also found out I need to down load the
5.3 sdk and add it to codewarrior as I believe the version of codewarrior I
currently have on my system (9.3) does not have it, or at least I don't
remember seeing it ..
Thanks again, this points me in the right direction.
Luis,

From the PalmNetServices.h header file in the 5.3 SDK:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/**
* Gets the HW address (i.e. MAC address) for the interface
*
* @param libRefNum: IN: Reference number of the library.
* @param hwAddrP: OUT: Pointer to store MAC address in.
* Must be 6 bytes in length.
*
* @retval Err Error code.
*/
Err NetServicesGetHWAddr( UInt16 libRefNum, UInt8 *hwAddrP )
SYS_TRAP(NetServicesLibTrapGetHWAddr);
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the same header file the library info:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/********************************************************************
* Library type and creator
********************************************************************/
#define ShlLibName "NetServLib" /**< PalmNetServices library name. */
#define ShlCreatorID 'NETs' /**< PalmNetServices creator ID. */
#define ShlLibType 'libr' /**< PalmNetServices library type. */
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That should be enough information.
