Retrieving mac address of remote computer



Hi all. I am currently developing a program that will be able to
retrieve the mac address of an individual computer or a group of
computers on the network.

The idea of the program is that my program is run from one computer
which is attached to the network and then I can select a room number
or type in the computer name the program will then talk to the network
to retrieve the computers MAC address.

However I don't have a clue about how I can get the mac address of a
computer.

Any help in this matter would be highly appreciated.

Thank you

.
