Network cards address
Hello,
I want to implement security on my application (based on network card's address),
so that it will not run on machine with unregistered card's address. Is it
posible to get the information about card's address ?
Thank in advance

search msdn for this title "HOWTO: Get the MAC Address for an Ethernet Adapter"
this article has a short c program that will get the mac address of the nci
on the machine...u can use this as your starting point.
cheers,

You do realize that drivers are what reports the MAC address in NT so some
drivers allow the user to modify what is being reported.

if you are using Windows 2000 you can use WMI, check out the Win32_NetworkAdapter
object, it has a property named MACAddress.
