Abstract

A method is provided for checking a computer system configuration in which a first check file is provided (28). A second check file is compiled (34) from the computer system configuration. The first and second check files are compared against each other (36) and a computer system configuration is approved (38) in dependence on the result of this comparison. This process can take place at the point of manufacture or at a customer installation or both.
