Hello. I am looking for some software that does hardware inventory, and is able to put it into a database of sorts (don't care if it's mysql or access or whatever). Does anyone know of such, but without requiring to buy a complete systems management system? Preferably something like psinfo (sysinternals) with database features, or the like.
It'll have to be executed via a script or command shell or such, cause I don't intend the students (working at a collage) to be bothered by it.

The most important things it'll have to do is list mac addresses on lan adapters, and know the netbios name of the client.

Nevermind me asking. Next time I'll ask a brick ; if it answers it'll probably be more useful than this.
