You have to write the code in C. It is extremely hairy in Windows.. I
started on it once thinking it was a 1 hour project, and abandoned it
and wrote it up as a student project. Then you glue that to Java with
JNI.

See http://mindprod.com/project/macaddress.html
and follow the links for hints on how to proceed.
