Re: [DUG]: Hard drive serial Number
Kerry, agree, which is why we dont use any of these schemes - they penalise your paid-up user. That doesnt make sense to us. Basically, you have to accept that some illegal copies will be made and used. Depending on the type of software, there are other schemes. In ours, we encourage them to copy the software. The catch is that the copy willcontinue to stamp each invoice with the legal owners name. If they try to fiddle with that, then they are unable to add more clients. We have had cases where the guy with a copy was quite happy to snip off the offending company name from each invoice - but he got sick of it after 6 mths and bought the s/w. :-) Rohit == CFL - Computer Fanatics Ltd. 21 Barry's Point Road, AKL, New Zealand PH(649) 489-2280 FX(649) 489-2290 email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] == --- New Zealand Delphi Users group - Delphi List - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Website: http://www.delphi.org.nz
RE: [DUG]: Hard drive serial Number
I've also been using the HD serial number to try and stop people making
illegal copies of my code, and also encountered batches of machines with the
same number.
Does anyone know of a foolproof way of uniquely identifying a machine so
that code can be locked to only work on that machine?

Re: [DUG]: Hard drive serial Number
I went around this last year, and several machine ID schemes came up, all with shortcomings. HDD ID - great until the drive is swapped (or another drive has the same ID) Network card ID - apparently this is definitely a unique Serial number but it requires a network card in the PC CPU ID - this was not unique, giving only the batch details of the chip edition. System footprint - a combination of HDD ID, Ram size, cpu id, and other system specific data. This is 'fragile' because any upgrade might cause the check to fail. Hardware Dongle - expensive I chose the HDD ID, it is at least a close free approximation of perfect. Otherwise the network card is cheaper and as foolproof as the dongle.

It may be that in a corporate environment you have encountered machines that have been imaged from common disk images - presumably the serial number is stored somewhere in the disk directory by MSDOS. I assume you mean the number that comes up when you do a dir listing. Does anyone know of a foolproof way of uniquely identifying a machine so that code can be locked to only work on that machine?

I so, this is no longer unique (well it must be within any one network of course) because many of the clone cards allow the MAC address to be changed. | Hardware Dongle - expensive Not really - in the range of $15-30 in quantity.

RE: [DUG]: Hard drive serial Number
There has been a fair bit of discussion on the group about _how_ to do copy protection. To me the biggest question is whether to do it or not. I don't suggest giving your software away, but simply having the name of the company that purchased the software written on all output always on screen might be a better approach. In the past I worked for a company that owned an accounting package (I won't mention names), that had environment security (disk ID's at least) built in. We ran it off a Novell server, and whenever we upgraded the server (which was fairly often - I kept added disks tweaking volume layout), then we had to _pay_ for a support call to get a new security code. Given that I could have just stolen the software, told them I had replaced the disk got a new code anyway, I really did not see the point. I can't imagine what would happen with software that checked Disk ID's was loaded onto a NT2000 server running a Hierarchical Storage Management System.

Re: [DUG]: Hard drive serial Number
I use MySQl for copy protection because my apps are internet related. Still need the hard drive serial number thou to decide if a computer that is loging in is a different (and disallowed) computer than the one already logged in or if it is the same computer relogging in becasue of conection loss, crash or power loss. This methord of copyprotection I find is very hard to hack and if it is hacked it is easy to spot. No good without the required connection thou.
