Understand you can use ipconfig/all to find MAC address on your own PC, etc., but does anyone know the way to find it on a PC on the network (not using PC Anywhere or going into the Switch ports, etc)?
I can see the C$ on all my PC's. Also, a way of using a Command Line would be nice. When I used Computer Management, and connect to the PC's the System Information for the network adapter tells me "not available". I am a Domain Admin, but do not have all the rights that come with Active Directory. It is a Win 2000 environment.
Thx in advance...

You can use the nbtstat command:

nbtstat -a [computername]

This will return the NetBIOS name table and MAC address of the remote machine.

Hope this helps!
