What is the best way to get the client machine's MAC address? I am the developer of the application that will launch via Winflector.

There is no such API function in Winflector. You can create your own function and call it via RPC. |

Thanks Mirek. Also I am testing the MAC filtering feature. The MAC addresses that display in the "Last connection attempts from the following devices" list box do not resemble the MAC addresses of the devices that I attempted to connect via. In fact, it listed 2 different MAC addresses for 2 different browsers on the same device. If I add an exception for the actual MAC address, access is denied. Where do the listed identifiers come from? |

Browsers are not able to read machine MACs. Only native client can read network interface MAC. For web browsers we use unique identifiers which are not real MAC addresses. |

Does the browser identifier stay constant with that browser on that device or is it subject to change? Is there some way of getting the browser identifier and registering it on Winflector Server in advance or must you attempt to connect via the browser, allow the login to fail and then find it in the "Last connection attempts from the following devices" list box and allow it access from there? This could be difficult to identify if the application has received many login attempts. It would be great if the registered MAC addresses in Winflector Server could also be attached to a custom description to later identify the machine or user that it belongs to. |

Identifier may change when browser cookies or local storage is clean. For now the only way is to use the learning mode or 'Last connection attempts...' I think we will add some features to MAC filtering in the future. |
