Hi

Does anybody have any idea to recognize devices uniquely?
KernelIoControl () works with some devices but not all.
I think there should be some kind of id which can apply to every device like
MAC address for Ethernet devices.

If anybody knows, please reply.

thnks

Hi.

Thanks for your reply.

I've already read that article and tested, but IOCTL_HAL_GET_DEVICEID or
IOCTL_HAL_GET_UUID does not always work for all devices.

I was searching web and found a program called PocketPCID from
http://www.selectiveminds.com

It shows CPU serial #, so there should be some way to get CPU serial # but I
cannot find any API or method which returns CPU serial # of PPC device.

Does anybody knows how to do it?

If you get the Symbol browser (demo available) from their website,
there's a GUID available to javascript which you can query. Probably
the hooks they use would be convenient for you.
