Hi all,
I am attempting to find the MAC address of systems visiting my page from the local LAN. I have tried several things, but it appears it will not let me run system commands. For example, running <?php $MAC = system("arp 192.168.200.254"); echo $MAC; ?>" does not give me any output. I have copied arp to a place that the apache user can execute from and ensured arp is executable.
This is on a Fedora Core 6 box running PHP 5.1.6-3.4 and Apache 2.2.3-5. Any help is appreciated.
