Subject: nondeterministic results of uname -n
Date: Sun, 03 Mar 2002 22:15:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C8311A6.624BA3BC@pobox.com> (raw)
I want to make it clear that I'm neither complaining nor asking
for a change - just reporting something I've noticed in case it's
of interest to anyone
basically, the nodename reported by uname is sometimes
uppercase, sometimes lowercase - i.e. on my laptop sometimes I
see:
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 ubik 1.3.10(0.51/3/2) 2002-02-25 11:14 i686 unknown
and sometimes:
CYGWIN_NT-5.0 UBIK 1.3.10(0.51/3/2) 2002-02-25 11:14 i686 unknown
I only noticed only because I do stuff like:
host = $(shell uname -n)
ifeq (blorp,$(findstring blorp,$(host)))
foo = bar
endif
in my makefiles, and I have to be careful about the case
-John
