That's what I'm thinking. But encrypted or not, anyone who copies
it will have access to the software.
(I'm starting to wonder if I care...) ;)
How about having the server run a validation app full time. It can
periodically check to see that it is installed legally on the server
by checking the MAC address and then generating the appropriate key.
If they both match as expected it continues to run. The server app
is listening to a port where the clients ping for validation from the
server app on their startup.
On an illegal install, the server validation app will not allow the
clients to run when they check in on startup. The only negative is
that you have to have an app running on the server. Should not be a
big deal.
