set
myComputerName to do shell script "hostname"
Hi Francois - don't know how to set the computer
name, but this seems to work for getting it:
set allInfo to system info
set myName to computer name of allInfo
Unfortunately it's real slow to get all the system info, and I can't
convince it to give me just the computer name independently, either.

Hi,
I'm trying to
use the "System information" command (part of Misc Commnads in Standard
additions) to retreive the "computer name"... But I just can't figure out
how to use it... How should I as for the "system information" property
called "computer name" ?
Note: If I do
"system info", then I get the entire list of info back properly... but the
"computer name" property is supposed to be used with "system
information"
I basically want
to be able to set a variable with the computer name.
I also would
like to know if someone has an idea how to set the computer name via AS or a
"do shell script"...
Thanks
Frank
