MAC address

Hi,
I have a win 2000 adv + sql 2000 box. I would like to know if it is
possible to not allow access to the server using some machines MAC address o
r
Name. I know we can do a lot by using logins and other ways, but in my case
I
have no other choice except either MAC or machine name.
Thanks for your help.
SalamHi
Do this at network router level as it is really efficient down there and the
right place to do it.
Regards

If you have Windows 2003 (preferably with SP1), you can use IPSec at OS
level to filter the traffic. Look up IPSec on technet for more information.
No an elegant solution, but it is the only thing that you could do.
