Help with the aw.dat for Maya 2009

[hiking365]

Does it matter what the name of the file is? Mine came with aw_09.dat so I'm replacing aw.dat with aw_09.dat. Also, when copying the ethernet address, I've noticed quotation marks around the address. Am I supposed to include those or leave them out?

So I've tried it both ways and I still cannot get the license to install. It says that "The file contains invalid data."

When I tried without the quotes and did the keygen, the aw.dat file says "Invalid license file syntax."

Any help is appreciated.

The name of the file doesn't matter BUT WHAT REALLY MATTERS IS when you copy the ethernet address JUST COPY THE NUMBER BEFORE THE SPACE: example "0013f00f3rt8 0039283736h5". THEN JUST COPY "0013f00f3rt8" (with the quotation marks").

And then it works!!!

I struggled to find the solution..
I don't know why nobody explained it better in the notes before.
Anyway, now it's done!
