Access Host-ID by Skill

Hi, Gurus,

Is it possible to access user Host-ID by Skill? I have tried function getShellEnvVar. It seems useless. Thank you for your helps in advance.

BRs,

Sogo Hsu

    Hi Sogo

    You could write the output of ipconfig /all to a text file using a system command. ie.
    system("ipconfig /all > ipdata.txt")
    Then get the physical address thus:
    p = axlDMOpenFile("TEMP" "ipdata.txt", "r")
    while(gets(ln, p)
    when(index(ln, "Physical Address")
    hostId = cadr(parseString(ln, ":\n"))
    )
    )
    axlDMClose(p)
    println(hostId)

    Cheers, Dave

    Hi Dave,

    how about the command "infile" instead of axlDMOpenFile?

    Hi Leon,

    That would work too - but isn't quite as reliable.

    Cheers, Dave
