so i need to get my ps2 online, but because of that damned program, i can;t. anyone know what to do? i think i need to give the it department here at college the mac address of my ps2. does that sounds right?
 
Only windows is supported by it. You'll have to login in using an alternative connection. I'm sure they have something for all the max/linux users on campus. Tell them you have a mac to connect and ask how to do it.
 
mac address doesn't mena he owns a mac, its a type of adress that lets you connect to the internet. As for what to do, there should be a network guy (if you live in the dorms) that should be able to help you out and let you knwo what to do.
 
the address might be printed on the network adapter?
check the settings that you go through to set the ps2 up for internet

I know, but I was refering to something else. I see how that was easy to misread. What I was refering to is he can't get in because his school's system requires a windows based os for cisco clean access agent, which ps2 along with mac and unix wouldn't work on. Thus, the school must offer some alternate connection for those. My school does the same thing. We have a program called 'smart enforcer' to regulate our connections, but it only works on windows. So if you have a linux or mac, you can bypass smart enforcer through an alternate connection they provide. I mask my windows xp machine as a mac to bypass smart enforcer in this way. There should be some alternate available on campus that his ps2 would work on.

Edit: AFter a little research I just found smartenforcer is the old name for this program, so its the exact same deal. To login you need their program on your pc, but the program only works on windows. Thus, an alternate connection option is likely provided by your school.

if you can get your mac address, they can set the network to allow the mac adress permission to enter where it needs to go. normally, the mac is on the network adapters, modems, etc. i havent messed with ps2 adapters, so i dont know exactly where that number is
 
you can get your mac address if you use the PS2 (or ffxi) network adapter setup utility.
