the machines i need the mac address for are not connected to the network.

When i boot from a Win98 CDROM/bootdisk...ipconfig and winipcfg and arp do not work.

when i copy other files...such as getmac.exe, they return a msg saying cannot run in dos mode.

The programs i'm trying to use...ipconfig, etc. seem to want some type of networking installed before they'll give me the mac address...

I just need a quick down & dirty way of getting the mac address without having to create special boot disks and tons of files...

should be pretty easy...debug runs on all ms systems
