Do keep in mind that if mainframe software maintenance were labor-free, most of the members of this list would not have jobs! <g>
If anyone has a better scheme, I'm all ears. IBM-MAIN members, design a software control system for me. How would it work? My needs are - Expiration date - Serial number check - Feature control (that is, it is not all or nothing -- you can be licensed for the product but not for optional feature X) - Relatively difficult to hack (nothing is impossible, of course) Charles -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ted MacNEIL Sent: Saturday, February 17, 2007 11:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: License keys for ISV products(What alternatives are there?) >Not all products are like that. Maybe then the issue isn't so much that keys are required, but the way they're sometimes implemented by the vendor? Sometimes? -- all the time. No vendor, that we use, has made keys easy to use! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
