MAC address

[Monte Goulding]

Hey are you sure you need to be logged in as a superuser. I just created a
new user without admin privileges and it works fine. It even works just as:
ifconfig en0 on OS X.2. I'm not quite up with X so perhaps ther is some
other definition of superuser that I don't know?????

Could we have a group test to put my mind at ease please. If anyone with Rev
2.0 or MC 2.3.4 could login as a user without admin privileges create a
stack with:

on mouseUp
  put shell("ifconfig en0")
end mouseUp

In a button script (for some reason you can't just use the message box).
Perhaps you could email reports to monte at sweattechnologies.com and I'll send
a summary to the list.
