I know it can be done because I have a Fedora Core 4 system doing it
right now. I didn't have to do anything special for it to work. The
system I am working on now is a Fedora Core 6 box. In /var/log/messages
I receive:
Apr 24 09:33:51 STUAUTH kernel: audit(1177425231.020:114): avc: denied
{ execute } for pid=31786 comm="httpd" name="bash" dev=dm-0 ino=916642
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:shell_exec_t:s0 tclass=file
If fixing up selinux doesn't work then look in to using 'sudo'. The
manpage(s) show examples about how to set it up to allow specific
commands to be run without a password.
Thanks for everybody's help. I have narrowed the problem down to
SELinux. Once I disabled SELinux the arp command works fine. I'm now
in the process of making it where SELinux can remain on while allowing
PHP to execute the command. Thanks a lot.

The avc: message means its SELinux, as you suspected. You need to
temporary disable the firewall by setting it to permissive, then use
audit2allow to find out what the settings need to be to set up the
permissions properly. Look up audit2allow in the man page - they
describe the process in there.

Re: [PHP] Find MAC Address in PHP
Hi.
Sorry for my bad english. :(
Maybe you could write a simple deamon program in C or even in PHP to be run as
root. The function of this deamon program is to listen to a port (eg. 1)
and you could fsockopen it and send the IP address of the client computer and
the deamon returns the MAC address of that computer. I used this kind a
scheme for another problem so I guess this works.

Yes... You store your root pwd in your script then:
$ su - -c arp
Password:
How you'll type your root pwd? =P
Something with the proc_* functions as you need bi-directional streams
(input/output). Something like this: (not tested, partly copied form
example 1926)
array("pipe", "r"), // stdin is a pipe that the child will read from
1 => array("pipe", "w"), // stdout is a pipe that the child will write to
2 => array("file", "/tmp/error-output.txt", "a") // stderr is a
file to write to
);
$process = proc_open('su - -c arp', $descriptorspec, $pipes);
if (is_resource($process)) {
fwrite($pipes[0], $root_pwd."\r\n");
fclose($pipes[0]);
echo stream_get_contents($pipes[1]);
fclose($pipes[1]);
proc_close($process);
}
?>

exit;

Where's the root password? I guess you need it too when using sudo?
Uhm, this is really weird code, i guess you meant this:
But well, when you have root access to the server, it might be better
to just cheat like i did, and make arp available to the PHP user :)

If not, you can't do that.
I dunno what 'arp' is gonna give you, but I wouldn't think you'd in

should you, actually... But if you've got your boxes configured to

Don't bother, if you manage to get a MAC, it won't be that of the client
machine in the majority of cases since the IP you get for the request is
not, in most cases, the one for that machine, but that of the proxy,
router
and zillion of other things that step in the middle and change the IP.

Re: [PHP] Find MAC Address in PHP
The OP said he wants MACs for the machines on his local LAN. In that case I don't think he would have meet the things you said. greets Zoltán Németh 2007. 04. 21, szombat keltezéssel 07.49-kor Satyam ezt írta: > Don't bother, if you manage to get a MAC, it won't be that of the client > machine in the majority of cases since the IP you get for the request is > not, in most cases, the one for that machine, but that of the proxy, router > and zillion of other things that step in the middle and change the IP. > > Satyam > > - Original Message - > From: "Nathaniel Hall" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: > Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 10:00 PM > Subject: [PHP] Find MAC Address in PHP > > > > Hi all, > > > > I am attempting to find the MAC address of systems visiting my page from > > the local LAN.

Re: [PHP] Find MAC Address in PHP
Usually arp on Linux requires the user to be logged in as root. If you can run it, try this: On 4/20/07, Nathaniel Hall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi all, I am attempting to find the MAC address of systems visiting my page from the local LAN.

[PHP] Find MAC Address in PHP
Hi all,
I am attempting to find the MAC address of systems visiting my page from
the local LAN. I have tried several things, but it appears it will not
let me run system commands. For example, running system("arp 192.168.200.254"); echo $MAC; ?>" does not give me any
output. I have copied arp to a place that the apache user can execute
from and ensured arp is executable.
This is on a Fedora Core 6 box running PHP 5.1.6-3.4 and Apache
2.2.3-5. Any help is appreciated.
