You can also use the plain vanilla Win32 module to get the computername.
use Win32; my $computername = Win32::Nodename; I might have the capitalization wrong, so double check that by doing a 'perldoc Win32' at the command prompt. -----Original Message----- From: $Bill Luebkert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 11:19 PM To: Vinod Panikar Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: adminmisc and sound card detection Vinod Panikar wrote: > Hello, > > I've written a script which uses AdminMisc and Win32::sound module to create a log using machine name and dump sound card info in to the log file.

POSIX uname will get the machine name/os version for one, not sure about the sound card info, but Win32::Sound probably works on 9x. -- ,-/- __ _ _ $Bill Luebkert ICQ=162126130 (_/ / ) // // DBE Collectibles Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / ) /--< o // // http://dbecoll.tripod.com/ (Free site for Perl) -/-' /___/_<_</_</_ Castle of Medieval Myth & Magic http://www.todbe.com/ _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Admin mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Admin mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
