Try this:

log(info, concat("commit", " ", binary-to-ascii(10, 8, ".", 
leased-address), " ", concat (
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 1, 
1))),2),":",
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 2, 
1))),2),":",
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 3, 
1))),2),":",
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 4, 
1))),2),":",
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 5, 
1))),2),":",
suffix (concat ("0", binary-to-ascii (16, 8, "", substring(hardware, 6, 
1))),2)
)));

Got this from someone earlier when I had the same problem.
