I am working on internal PHP application where users login only from our network

I am working on internal PHP application where users login only from our network (we are on dedicated IP and application is checking $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’] and if is match our IP go thru if not – Bye

However how I can identify from which station user is login ?
Using cookie not gonna work – those are windows station working under control MS StedyState and all cookies are deleted every login
I don’t need nothing fancy like full MAC address just any unique ID (can not be application username – because users use different stations)

Any ideas ?
Maybe Javascript is able to grab some Unique detail from station’s browser (IE 8) and pass this as hidden input?

    I don’t think it’s going to happen. You won’t get the MAC anyway unless it is a very simple network. If this is an internal thing, perhaps you could deploy something that changes to the User Agent string. You could probably just make an Active-X or something and just have the users run it once. The User Agent could be modified to take the Mac address of the first NIC or something like that. Just an idea.
