Apple distributes a LAN Utility that does this.  You can get it from thier
site at "ftp3.info.apple.com".  Follow the path,
"/Apple.Support.Area/Apple.Software.Updates/US/Macintosh/Unsupported/" and
grab the file named "Apple_LAN_Utility_1.0b4.sea.hqx".  You can use
Stuffit Expander to uncompress it into a usable state.  One note of
caution: this utility allows you to change the node address!  As an
alternative, if you're running machines with Open Transport 1.1, you can
use the 'safer' AG Group's "GetMyAddress."  It's available at ftp.aggroup.com
in the path "/Public/goodies/" under the filename "GetMyAddressOT.sit.hqx"

There's another non-OT version, but is reported to not be as reliable.
It can be found in the same location named "GetMyAddress.sit.hqx".
