hi, everyone:
we are going to connect our sgi 4d/35 to university netnwork. the network 
manager ask us to give him the ethernet address of our workstation. 
my question is :

1) Where should I find out the ether net address, i checked /etc/ethers and
/usr/etc/ethers, /usr/etc/hosts, nothing is there except IP address and 
hostname.

2) Is there any utility in the unix that give me ethernet address ?

any reply is appreciated.
