Hostid

The Hostid is required for the licensing process and here is how to get it:

Windows

  • Run the "Command" (cmd.exe) application.
  • Enter ipconfig /all
  • Copy down the "Physical Address" (aka "MAC address") from the "Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection" (or "... Wireless Connection") section. 
  • The hyphens between the two-digit blocks are not necessary.
  • All addresses shown here are examples and have to be replaced through your actual address!



 

Linux

  • As the root user (or user with appropriate permissions)
  • Type "ifconfig -a"
  • From the displayed information, find eth0 (this is the default first Ethernet adapter)
  • Locate the number next to the HWaddr. This is your MAC address - the colons between the two-digit blocks are not necessary.
  • All addresses shown here are examples and have to be replaced through your actual address!
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:08:C7:1B:8C:02
          inet addr:192.168.111.20  Bcast:192.168.111.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

macOS

  • Open the "System Preferences" and go to "Network"
  • Select an ethernet port and click on More Options... > Hardware
  • Copy down the "MAC-Address" code for the licensing process - the colons between the two-digit blocks are not necessary.
  • All addresses shown here are examples and have to be replaced through your actual address!
