May i detect user's harddsik serial no by php code?
Why i want this?
I want to design a site which can be runned after login This login system also checks the user's harddsik no and allows connection only from the registered terminals. If you have another method to suggest me, I appreciate it.

On the server computer you can use exec() (and related functions) to run program and capture their output. You could use this to run a program that gave you system information. For the client you would need to use cookies or look at browser values returned in the $_SERVER superglobal. To better detect clients you may want something like a Java app to inspect the system and communicate back system information.
