Has anyone else seen this, too? The macro: @address fails on Compaq Deskpro ENs but works on all other systems here. It posts an error to the event log "Failed to retrieve NIC address Error : (0x23/35)"

The boxes have built-in Intel NICs and we didn't see anything in the BIOS config about it. Ipconfig /all shows the MAC address however. FWIW, all systems are running W2K.

Thanks

Are these single port NICs? There's a known issue with teaming NICs. What version of KiX?

One single port NIC on motherboard, no teaming, with Kix 3.63. The problem w/ a macro or a built in function is not knowing how it decides, in this case, the MAC address.

I think this is in the registry, albeit in a confusing format (binary, hex, reversed, etc)

Bob,

Do the other macros like @IPADDRESS0, @WKSTA, etc. work?

Thanks!
