Thanks a lot to both of you for your feedback.
... and also for the nice tips provided in tutorials.

I have just a few more comments after breaking two targets:

1. I was able to find the seeds1-2 for 'target 1' name make a working license usable only with the vendor daemon (so it works fine as network license, even if the server runs locally). However, the target does not accept standalone license, even if I make them locked and time limited. I assume that this is because of not knowing seeds3-4, is that correct? These are probably used locally but not in the vendor daemon.

2. I worked last weekend on 'target 2' and found the encryption seeds1-2 for an older version of the target that used FlexLM 9.2. Then, I was able to make working standalone and network licenses.
Now I tried the newer version of the target which uses FlexNet 10.8. However, based on the seeds1-2 I found for the previous version (based on FlexLM 9.2) and using the lmcrypt generated with SDK 9.2 I was still able to make working working license files. I am puzzled ... how is this possible? Isn't the new FlexNet better than previous FlexLM versions? Or is it just because of not good implementation by the vendor of 'target 2'?
