trq Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Even if there was an easy way to retrieve mac addresses using php (which there isn't) it would only ever return the mac address of the router closest to your server. What exactly do you want with a users mac address anyway, there may be more suitable options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyzad Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks. I have some users. but i need my users, download files on site only from 1 PC. Using cookie is unsafe and users can cheat on it. using IP is not good idea too, because Their IP may change on different connections. What do you recommend? Thanks you.
