As long as the machines you want to list are FreeBSD, UNIX or at least Linux, I'd suggest the following procedure (which will look old-fashioned, but it includes the chance to learn and practice): 1. run dmesg on the machines 2. grep / awk for the data fields you're interested in 3. create a CSV database 4. add the information that can't be obtained automatically (e. g. serial numers) 5. convert the database into any format you like (e. g. XML) or just run on the CSV datasets for summarizing / counting informations Yes, ugly suggestion, I know. But I think implementing this will need less time than searching for a program to do it for you based on trial & error. :-) -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
