Hi Marcel, > Hello, I need to know what is a good way to find out if the local > machine running a python script is a XO.
One way might be to "cat /ofw/model". If the file doesn't exist, or doesn't return a letter and number, you probably aren't running on an XO. > The goal is to check it the machine running the program is in fact > an XO or some other machine, and to do it in a way that is very > hard to fake from some other computer. I don't think making this hard to fake is possible, because any computer with root access can reply to your test in whatever way is necessary. I think you probably shouldn't try to accomplish this, or should try to use a different method such as a pre-shared credential. Hope that helps, - Chris. -- Chris Ball <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
