On HP-UX we use the uname() function in our own proprietary licensing software
Which we have developed. One of the
values it returns is the ‘idnumber’,
Which contains a unique
identification number for each physical machine in which it is run.
Using this same function on Red Hat 8.0 the ‘idnumber’ field does not exist.
Does anyone know of an alternative way of getting such a idnumber ?
I’ve been doing some searching and have not come up
with anything.
Thank you,
Fred Bartholomai
