Getmac is for networking, not Apples

Posted by dvanarsd on May 20, 2008

When you are working with networks, it helps to have the Media Access Control (MAC) address of your computer network card.

The easy way to find it in XP is using the getmac command, but there are some additional features available.

Internet Fixes has instructions on the getmac command.

Another method is to use the command for ipconfig:

  1. Click on the Start button
  2. Click on Run
  3. Type ipconfig/all
