Sorry, a wonderful line from computer stupidities just popped into my head:
"It has a MAC address, therefor you can block it for being an Apple
product"
Blatently stupid, I know, but still funny.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

We used to scan MAC IDs at one place I worked. Since the
MACs are assigned by block to companies, you can pick out
the Apple MACs, use a network scanner (NID or smaller
utility) to determine the OS, and block the device in a
firewall. For wireless, that would be feasible, for desktop,
a little more difficult and messy.
A much simpler idea: I would just throw a tizzy fit if
someone brought in a device that I didn't want on my
network. It has worked for me with Windows systems on my
home network! ;-)

You could periodically run nmap -O on the LAN address space, and then block
anything which shows up as unwanted.
