schilly Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 anyone have any ideas or examples for generating unique keys to be used as a license? the codes will be tied to a person's user account. i was just going use a random generated string and check it against the table of license codes. anyone have any better ideas? there wasn't really any good results from google. thx.

roopurt18 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 i was just going use a random generated string and check it against the table of license codes This is usually what I do. To help with uniqueness I usually use some form of: client name + timestamp + random It's hashed in a manner that when you view the final key there is no way to know who it belongs to though or what the original data was.
