Klaus,
I was browsing through old todo notes and found one on how I should
identify a computer no matter if it was reinstalled or got a new name.
Using system_profiler you get a Serial Number entry.
What I haven't been able to find out is how does system_profiler find
that? As far as I can see, there is no sysctl entry for this...
Anyone know how to get this info?
Why do you want this information ?
I know this is answering a question with a question but experience
shows that knowing this will help concentrate the inevitable ensuing
discussion.
Douglas
