psychomanu Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Hi all, does anyone know how to get the local MAC address without using system_exec with the windows call getmac ? I want it to happen in the background without the user noticing. Ideally I would like to read it straight from the registry, but I don't find the right key. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
FLX Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Try this example form ni.com Obtaining the MAC Address http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_displ...source=External Quote Link to comment
psychomanu Posted October 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Hi, I had tried this before, but it requires knowledge of the IP address which I don't have. But I now realise that I can use 127.0.0.1 as IP to find the local MAC, so thanks a lot, Manu Quote Link to comment
