Hey Guys,
Is there anything that lansweeper uses to identify uniqueness of a system, say like MAC address or Service Tag / Serial number. It seems like if you change a computer name then LanSweeper will now have 2 entries for the same system, the old name and the new name even know it is the same physical hardware.
Thanks for any info
Pete

Duplicate macs, duplicate SIDS, automatic removal, ...
