To retrieve the Windows username and MAC address from a client machine accessing your Oracle Application Server, you generally need to capture this information at the server-side request. Here's how you can often accomplish this: 1. Windows Username: - The Windows username should typically be part of the login details sent with the request headers. You can access it from the server-side code that handles user authentication or logging. In a web application, this information is usually provided automatically during the login process. 2. MAC Address: - MAC addresses are usually not transmitted over the internet. They are part of the data-link layer in networking and are not passed between network devices as part of standard...

MAC Address: - MAC addresses are usually not transmitted over the internet. They are part of the data-link layer in networking and are not passed between network devices as part of standard IP-based communication. - Instead, you might try to get the MAC address stored within your database records or within a Windows environment. 3. Client Information: - You can usually capture client information like IP address, user-agent headers, or login-related details at the server level. However, the Windows username and MAC address might not be readily accessible this way due to security and privacy considerations. 4. Database Lookup: - To associate the Windows username or MAC address with user activities in your Oracle application, you might need to set up a mechanism to store and map this information in your database whenever a user interacts with your application. Remember that accessing personal data like Windows usernames and MAC addresses can raise privacy and security concerns. It's essential to handle and store such data securely and in compliance with data protection regulations. If you need further assistance with specific technical details in your Oracle Application Server setup to capture this information, consulting Oracle documentation or seeking specialized Oracle support might be beneficial.
