Indeed!
~$ /sbin/ifconfig
eth4 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0C:29:D5:8D:DF
...
On windows, the incantation is 'ipconfig /all' (note the 'p'). This
is very verbose, but there will be an entry for your ethernet card:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : csir.co.za
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Intel(R) 82566DM-2 Gigabit
Network ...
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-21-9B-6F-0F-19
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
....
In both cases, io.popen is your friend.
