hi, i can read and check all MACaddresses, but it doesn't work if the card's cable is unplugged! i use the standard class NB30.pas. it must work, in dos you can get the MACaddress even if the card is unplugged (ipconfig /all) any suggestion to do that in delphi??
i really have to do this! hope you can help me, thanks

if you're interested, i've used it to substitute the key on LPT usually used to protect a software. i generate a code from the MACAddress and some parameters, then i store it in the win registry, evrery time the programs start he check the code with all the MAC address found in the PC. i didn't found a way do do this via netBIOS, so the solution that i've applied is to send a command to the dos shell (ipconfig /all), and to redirect the output to a temp file, reading this file i can do what i want.
not really the best way, but it works
