nbmac - DOS display of the network MAC address (local or remote) http://www.kostis.net/freeware/
Boot from a DOS network boot disk (Bart's Network Boot Disk, MS Client, PXE, etc), map a drive run the following:
net use x: \\servername\sharename x:\ echo ComputerName >> maclist.txt nbmac >> maclist.txt
This will produce a list with the following: ComputerName1 <- The name of the computer 11-00-11-00-11-00 <- That computer's MAC address
If all you want is a list of the various MAC addresses for your 25 machines make a batch file and call it right after your network boot disk loads (e.g. autoexec.bat)
