Duplicate Hasp

[Roger]

If a person was to have their legal MC hasp duplicated, would this violate the license agreement? Or be legal?

 

I WOULD NOT BE USING IT TO MAKE ANY KIND OF PROFIT!

 

I use my hasp at the company I work for, and sometimes I like to practice programming at home.

(This is a pain in the butt! Unplugging MY hasp from the computer at work, Crawling under my desk at home to plug it in, and then remembering to take it back in to work with me.

 

There is a web site that can make duplicates for I think it was around $70.

Upgrade to a USB hasp, CADCAM carrys his on his keychain. It's much smaller and as any other USB device plug it in hot.

Roger,

 

What was the web site? I somehow dont think it would be legal to actually duplicate the HASP, though I'm certainly not sure about it.

 

I'm curious to see how they "market" their service

It's gotta be a violation.

how much is the upgrade to the usb hasp?

anyone know?

do they take your old one for exchange?

I gotta be pretty certain its definetaly (sp?) illegal to clone your dongle Even if its not,to use business based it is a form of piracy.I could be wrong about the whole thing,but other

shops could buy new hasps,and not worry about multiple registered seats.

Jeff,

I got my USB hasp by exchanging it for my original hasp. There was no charge for this. I called my reseller and CNC software sent me the new hasp and I then I sent back the old one.

Dont upgrade to USB if operating under Windows NT. NT does NOT support USB connections

It is a violation to clone your HASP. Many a Mastercam customer were upset when a company that offered this "service" was busted in the early 90's and was forced to turn over their customer records and they got nice letters outlining Mastercam's strict policy about this sort of thing and the reminder that "You do not own the software, you are being granted a license to run it".

Keith Graydon for drivers for USB for NT4 go to the alldon web site were you can down load the drivers.

 

As for the copying of the Key this not permitted.

[Keith Graydon]

CadCam, Would These NT drivers be masterCam specific drivers for use only with the MasterCam USB HASP and Windows NT? Much like the Iomega ZIP Drive drivers for NT.

they are specific drivers these keys from the makers of the Hasp USB key for NT4
