I'd check how the hostname command runs on your computer,
See what happens on my F8 system:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ hostname
confianza
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ hostname -s
localhost
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$
the -s
The problem is that both computers return hostname = localhost, so that won't
work. IP address is not always possible, as the network might not be up,
especially on the laptop.
How would I check the HWaddress (MAC)?
As ifconfig returns a whole list of things:
1.How can I isolate just
A suggestion I found on the net is to test for the value of md5sum
/etc/passwd. Now, does this stay the same, even if a password is added or
changed? Is it unique to a computer? And also, how do I isolate the number and
strip off the space and /etc/passwd from the result?

That's horrible. Unreliable, etc.

With shadow passwords, yes. But if someone:
I will see if I can make the HWaddr test work.
Thanks, those are great suggestions.

Tried it on both computers. Works great! Neither will run the other's script.
Fantastic!
THANKS :-)
