Hello all.
The code bellow prints (in the command line window) the MAC ADDRESSES of all
NIC cards enabled in the computer.
What I need is: a library based on this code, that will return a string with
the output of this command line tool. I need to use this library in my C#
(.NET) program. In other words, convert this native .EXE in a library that I
could use in my managed C# application.
This is really very important to me, if anyone can help me, I'd be forever
thankful.
Leo
