    Hi guys,

    i would like to check if a specified mac address is present on the server, if it doesn' t the script exit.

    i wrote this:

    $Mac1 = "00-0A-A7-7B-AC-E2"
$ServerMacs = Get-CimInstance win32_networkadapterconfiguration | select description, macaddress

IF ($ServerMacs.macaddress -contains $Mac1)
{
Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "RUNNING SCRIPT"
}
ELSE {Write-Host -ForegroundColor Magenta "SCRIPT EXITING"}
    I think that problem is when compare the string..

    Hi Ramses,

    dunno how it is noted for you, but when testing it on my machine, it returns the MAC with ":" not "-". May need to update your $mac1 variable.

    Cheers,
    Fred

    There's no place like 127.0.0.1
