Integrate Machine Id to SystemService

Open pintify opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The need for a standard unique identifier of a device in any Linux system.

Describe the solution you'd like Integrate into SystemService a new method to obtain the Machine Id of the device: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/machine-id.5.html

Describe alternatives you've considered The use of primary MAC or serial number as unique identifier of a system is very fallible because the serial number is not properly supported through multiple distros and hardware and the primary MAC address forces the use of static MAC (not necessarily desirable in wireless applications) and is hard to track when the no-network firmware is in use.
