That'll probably work too.....provided you are only running Windows servers. For Solaris, you need to use section=uname Not sure for anything else.
By using wget, you are essentially retrieving the "info" page. Doesn't matter what OS you are running, you should find the version and some details next to the string "OS:" You might still need a little bit of creative massaging to get what you want into a comparable format, but the basics are there. It has worked for me in the past. YMMV.

How does a wget call compare to using the bb command?
I replaced the wget with: $BBHOME/server/bin/bb localhost "clientlog $HOSTNAME section=osversion" | grep -v osversion > $HOSTNAME
and the OSVER with: OSVER=$(sed -e :a -e 's/<[^>]*>//g;/</N;//ba' $HOSTNAME)

You want a list of number of OS versions, pipe the output to awk '{ print $2 }' | sort | uniq -c | awk '{ print $2":"$1} You can feed this back to Hobbit using bb, as a test and graph it.
I recommend you use stack graphs for more interesting looking graphs.
Let me know how you go.

Easy enough to knock together.
Read it out of the server, then feed it back.

Hi ! Got somebody an working script for counting OS of alle clients ( RHEl3/4/5 Solaris .5.8/5.19./5.10 etc ..) with graphing .. ?
