  • this won't help to get it from host. – eis Nov 06 '13 at 09:35
  • oh, sorry, i didn't get the problem However, i think this is not possible to know the host's mac address because of java can't know if it is executed in a box – Mathiewz Nov 06 '13 at 09:54
  • yes, I agree. At least not in a trivial way which wouldn't need some "hacking". – eis Nov 06 '13 at 10:26
