The first big clue would be contacting the system's owner. I don't=20
make a habit of logging into systems where I cannot contact whoever is
paying for it.

That being said, mptable, the motherboard, or simply "boot SMP", will
all provide the information you seek.

I would be very hesitant to do anything on a system where I did not
know its owner, and I cannot reboot it, however. If you're finding
yourself in that situation.... run far, far away.
