And it gets better. Per the comments: "I have come across machines that DO have more than one chassis type (Laptops on docking stations are Laptop/Notebook + Expansion Chassis)" We solved this problem by having the hostname reflect the type. So if the hostname begins with FOOLT, it's a laptop. If it's FOOPC, it's a desktop. Works every time. ;-) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
