Hi everybody. I am a newcomer so this has to be a stupid question. Let me describe it.
Is there a possible way to recover lm_seeds from the enc_seeds1/2/3/4 and prikeys1/2/3 for a target using flex 11.5 with ecc of course?
Before this post i have read a lot of tuts regarding flex and found that only patching is the solution, impossible to recover fully the lic. I have that soln and working perfectly fine with changing it to accept old way of lic and using ENC1/2. But i just want to learn something. Since i have this information overload of having the prikeys, i thought is it possible now.
To my surprise ENC3/4 is not changing anything in the lic. I generated with a arbitrary ENC3/4 and found that SIGN is same SIGN="007E 4F63 E56E 12F8 \
1AEC 4C94 C98D CF00 89DB 2B0B E276 AD73 AA94 F0CF 152D"
as it was with actual enc3/4. The only thing left is to hunt for lmseed.
Please excuse me if still the post is not upto the mark of 3 letter Admin.

On behalf of the "three letter admin" I would like to point out that you have not stated what "you" have done to attempt to find the answer to the question you posed. You have done an adequate job of explaining what you have done in your target, but nothing about what you may have done to research you issue, both here and on the net.

You DID actually read the FAQ, didn't you???

Anything is possible, but with the adoption of 64bit OS's and new ownership of the software - the encryption level has been set to a level that warrants far more computing power available to even attempt decryption - another factor is the attitudes of a lot of the companies using this License management system, in the past a few if not many thought it advantageous that "cracked versions" be available, many of the softs cost $50-250,000 dollars and with fewer and fewer companies willing to pay for a new employee's steep learning curve, having self trained applicants as attractive - this may swing back to that, but with patching relatively easy - don't bet on it.

Just my 2 bits worth.

@JMI
c'mon man i did read FAQ. Searched net as well as this forum. Got one tutorial by crackz which describes about ECC hunting. Otherwise, found many tutorials over many things and learned that it is still out of practice, at least till today, to go for lmseed. But was just curious enough to post.

@SiGiNT
Well said. Your words worth a lot.
I got the point. To get an egg, i should not think about starting a poultry farm

9skumar and rose:

Both of you seem to miss "the point" of my comments in this Thread and others. We have gone to some trouble to establish a set of procedures and processes one is supposed to follow when they post on these Forums.

Those processes and procedures are clearly set forth in our FAQ.

When people write posts which do not show that they have either read the FAQ or have not followed its directions, they generally get to hear from me.

9skumar: you seem to miss the "point" because "how would one know that you have attempted to help yourself by searching here and/or on the net if you say nothing about having done so???"

If you had simply said that you had already searched on the net, most likely, you would not have a post by me, even though you added a gratutious comment about me in your post. The purpose of such posts are to not only remind posters of our requirement that one attempt to help themselves first, but that they also state that they have done so and some of what they have done.

This is done to attempt to lessen the amount of people who make no personal effort to help themselves, who post wanting someone else to solve their problem for them, without any personal effort. It is a simple thing to avoid happening. All one has to do is read the FAQ and follow and post what it requires.

As I have repeated many times, these statements are not only for your "education" in our requirements, they are to inform those who follow what we expect of posters here.

I have a better solution Rose:

Quit yer bitchin and do something to help yourself instead of waiting for someone to give you the answer.

You see Rose, this place has but a few simple rules.
The most important is that YOU show YOU made an effort.
That doesnt mean a cut and paste job using the the text from the last 50 people who had the same problem.

Old tutorials will not give you the answers you desire.
Perhaps a torrent search will .

Hah ha... Liked that "three letter admin" Isn't it true that simplicity lies beyond complexity?

Back in days when he was a "three letter super mod", and infant Google was yet being nourished in Menlo Park garage, I recall JMI going thru a book just to reply a thread about the nuts and bolts of a protector. That was a mere unprecedented expedience which encompassed the internals of Windows registry.

Habitual searching is the key to all RCE inquiries. When you have all the cards in the deck you can play the tricks. That's what this board is good for.

Ohh.... Wow...... What a hot discussion out here.
I thought this thread is dead 2 days ago, after SiGiNT post.
Anyway, so the new suggestion for me is to use GooGle Properly, alright.
I got now 2 answers for my problem. Thanks everybody.

Yeah, I have been known to kill a thread or 2, I didn't mean to sound pessimistic but even the "expert flexlm teams" are now patching, that doesn't mean it can't be done maybe you'll show them up - like I said anything is possible, the key is desire, curiousity, and perseverance. and your brain is far more powerful than anything with a keyboard attached.

No No SiGiNT. Don't feel otherwise. It is absolutely fine. If the easier soln is to patch then it is the best one. We have so many softwares to learn on technical as well lic part. Then it is the most optimized way.
Regarding killing a thread it was just my perception that i got the answer and probably no other post will come. Nothing to blame u man.
Enjoy........
