Try this:

<?
ob_start();
passthru("arp " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . "| grep " .
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . " | cut -b34-50");
$arp_data = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
?>

I have another question regarding running a system command on a web
server.  Let me explain again, I am creating a login page that is to be
used on my local lan only.  I am wanting to lock down a maximum number
of logins to up to 2 MAC addresses.  I finally got the arp command
working, but now I have another issue with new lines.

The command I am running is system("arp " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . "
| grep " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . " | cut -b34-50");

The command runs correctly, however the output is directly and not by
using echo.  I would like to be able to assign what is returned to a
variable so that I can do additional work on it.  Any ideas?
