Access Client machine key through ASP.NET

[aatif]

Can I get machine key of the client accessing a web page through
ASP.net, like I can make an exe which is installed on the client side
to get his machine key, but how will it be transferred to the page, if
he tries to access the page.

Anybody have any idea about it, all I want to do is to restrict
access of some pages from some computers only after getting machine
key.

I used to have a machine key, but I lost it. Doesn't really matter, though,
as I never lock it.

I found one in the parking lot yesterday. Should I save it for you?

aatif,

Unfortunately, the poor guys couldn't understand what you meant.

The registry? The machine name? The client's url?

Is this for the Internet or an Intranet? So you want to restrict access by
computer name? One solution is to create a downloadable ActiveX object, and
embed it in your page. The user would have to agree to install it. This
would work on an intranet, where managment mandates "you must install this".
Been there myself. But probably won't work on the Internet...people are too
cautious to download and install anything.
