        // Only gets the address for the first net interface, if you have more than one you'll need to get the list
// and decide which you want to use.

    InetAddress add = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
    NetworkInterface ni = NetworkInterface.getByInetAddress( add );
    byte[] mac = ni.getHardwareAddress();
