Just to clearify where REMOTE_ADDR is ocmming from:
REMOTE_ADDR is part of the CGI-Spec and is provided by the Webserver which
handles the connection to the client.
something like:
cfd = accept(fd, &(sockaddr), sockaddrlen);
cgi_var("REMOTE_ADDR", inet_ntoa(sockaddr.in...));
But as it has been said by georg: there is no way to get MAC address of the
client, if the client isn't in the same physical network (where you could to
a ARP request)
