Checking your hardware ID with lmhostid IRIX Linux Mac OS X
The lmhostid tool provides the hardware ID for the current machine. This should correspond with the Host ID in the aw.dat, aw_servername .dat, or aw_server.dat file. If they do not match, make sure that a typing mistake was not made.
To verify hostid information (IRIX, Linux, Mac OS X)
1 (IRIX, Mac OS X) At the prompt, or in a shell/Terminal window, type:
lmhostid
2 (Linux) At the prompt, type: /usr/aw/COM/bin/lmhostid -ether
The -ether argument returns the Ethernet address/hostid.
3 Press Return.
The result is displayed on the screen.
