Is it possible to retrieve the serialnumber of the cpu the program is currently running on without the use of any privileged instructions?
Background: we want to generate UUIDs and need the clocktime (that's easy) and a unique identifier of the machine/CPU we're running on. The UUID algorithm normally uses the machine's MAC address but I have no idea how to retrieve that information either.. thanks, Fred! ----------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION: The information in this electronic mail message is private and confidential, and only intended for the addressee.
