I did manage to discover a method that does work in DOS 6.22 in the mean time.
Download the B57UDIAG utility from Broadcoms site, and then run as follows:
B57UDIAG.exe -t ABCDE - l macfile.log (case sensitive)
This basically runs the utility excluding all tests (ABCDE test ranges) but dumps details of the nic (including MAC address) into the logfile "macfile.log".
I then parse out the actual MAC address from the log file using AWK to find it on the line and output it in a format exactly the same as Intel's IDADAPT.exe does. That way, I use the same batch script from that point onwards.

Toms RTBT probably works.

Its not MSDOS. Its linux on a 1.44 floppy.
There is also a version of Linux that boots from CDROM
