Thanks for your answers.
This is only a part of the informations that are given back to a 
computer park management system.
This software was at first only working on windows and the information 
of type of OS (workstation/server) is given back.
I'm just trying to give back all the same informations from the macs.
That's why i answered only "to know the information".
Thomas.
