Hi,
I have developed an Application software using LabVIEW. I have created a Installer package for my Application with supporting Drivers and exe. But i want to install this package only for the system of selected MAC ID list. If MAC ID dosen't match the installation should not happen. Is it possible to make such type Installer package and how it can be achieved.
Regards,
Padhu

First of all, I understand that MAC addresses are not exactly secure to use for this purpose as they are settable.
I don't know if you can stop it installing; I think you would need to allow installation but then check ID at the front of your main VI. If the check fails simply abort or do whatever you want to do.

Have you had a look at this?

I have looked extensively into this. It requires "Protection Plus". I have enquired with them re. use in LabVIEW.
These guys and this package are seriously lacking in their support of LabVIEW. They didn't know how to implement it in LV and there is only some vague examples from NI available.
I would really like to use but NI needs to support.
Until that happens I have used some of the great freely available encryption VIs..
