View Full Version : FLEXlm - no imported functions

I have a problem with Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6
It is protected with FLEXlm 7.2, but there's no
FLEXlm specific dll. Instead, DEVVFL.PKG and
DECFOR90.EXE are protected by FLEXlm, but not
using imported FLEXlm functions...

So I'm not able to recognize the important FLEXlm
functions to be able to get the seeds, though I've
read all the tuts available on the subject, and
browsed the previous posts.

That means FlexLM is statically linked in the executable.
lmgr.lib is what you are looking for. Make a signature file of it and apply it in IDA.

To make a signature of a .lib file to apply to an exe, you need to download the FLAIR package:

hxxp://www.datarescue.com/ida/flair421.zip

Once you have downloaded it (it's only a few hundred Kb) you should use "sigmake" to create your signature.

Hi squidge,
When I try to download Flair 2.41 using your link, a password is required to get it.

Yup, enter your normal username and password you got from Datarescue. It's only them trying to make sure only registered users are allowed to download the files.

Nice. You have to buy a copy of IDA to get access.
Well, thanks anyway for information.

Surely a bit of searching will yield the flair kit, and you can make
DIY sigs. Or you could possibly find .sig files that have been
made for you already by some kind soul.

I did do quite an extensive search without luck. I only found version. 3.81 (I think). But luckily I got a mail from a friend with Flair 4.21 attached.

IDA 4.30 is pretty much wide spread at the moment, and comes with the latest FLAIR and SDK...

Obviously, I can't give you a link (apart from to Datarescue). So please don't ask for one.
