@Woodmann
You are right i have to read more and i done it
Read about 12 Essay's(Pilgrim, Dan, NB, Macilaci, ACME, Amante and so on). In most of them is written read other Essay before so i concentrated on them in which it was not written. There are parts i don't understand and parts i do.
Okay, know i know whether i have a FlexLM-Target or not.
LM can be linked statically in the Target's EXE or dynamc from DLL.
With the LM tool, i can look which version i have in front of me.
But i have still problems.
I have a target where my lm is statically linked and i was told to break on lm_init, lm_..... and so on, before i loaded the exports in SymbLoader.
I can set the BPX no prob, but sice doesn't break. I don't know why.
Ansoft is another problem, try to replic the way it's described in the tut but it won't work. Is the Version of Ansoft's Serenade 8.5 different from the one used in the past `?
Finally i was not able to get any keys or seeds.( For Example: The es points to a addr in code (432342...., something like this)
but there is no address like that. I use the same prog Ansoft Serenade v8.5.
Is it my fault ?
I'm using Win2k, and sure the mem addresses are different, but the file addresses should be the same, or !?
Another question:
Is it possible that my app deliveres the lmgr*.dll, but it doesn't use it, so it uses a stically linked one. In order to fool us ?
Hope someone have some answers for me
@Woodman I'm an learning by doing guy, no matter. So i have to learn by making mistakes AND by reading essays about it. Hope you can accept this.
There is one thing i want to say, i really interessted in lerning this stuff and i will spend a big amount of my freetime to learn it.
It will be great if you guys can support me with it.
thx
