I'm looking for a way to get a truly unique identifier for a machine for our
client software. I'd like to have it so that there's little or no setup by
the end user. (We set up the machines and then ship them out for most cases
but some of our customers do provide their own machines.) Our concern is if
somebody takes one of our machines and ghosts it so they have a complete
copy of the machine, it will allow them to continue working.
We are currently using the Mac Address but there are situations, like with
cellular modems, where the Mac Address isn't neccessarily unique and also
that it could change.
Does anybody know of anything that is truly unique for each and every
machine that we can use as a unique Identifier that's not the mac address?
TIA - Jeff.
