Folks,
I just found this:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/scriptcen
ter/scrguide/sas_cpm_btnz.asp (watch the word wrap)
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colChassis = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("SELECT * FROM Win32_SystemEnclosure")
For Each objChassis in colChassis
For Each intType in objChassis.ChassisTypes
Wscript.Echo intType
Next
Next
Where chassis type is one of 24 possible values. Seems like this might be
the magic bullet, but I definately need to test. Thanks for the suggestion!
Regards,
John A. Bjelke

Bill,
we are moving to that already, and if I can figure out how to
differentiate the chasis type I can write scripts to automate the process
instead of relying on attrition or a massive helpdesk effort to rename every
pc and laptop. Catch-22.

We employ a standardized machine naming convention whereby a laptop is given
the name User-LT and this makes it a very simple process to break them out.

Existing IP scheme is static, and that's not viable to change at this time.

You can do this with segmentation on a DHCP network.

Objet: [ActiveDir] OT: Identifying laptops on domain
Perhaps someone here might know:
Is there any machine attribute or registry value that can be queried
to differentiate workstations and laptops on a domain? We have a
circumstance that requires laptops to be addressed differently from
workstations, and we have been unable to find any consistent variable to
poll for this determination. Any suggestions or assistance is most
appreciated.
