The first thing I've learned at my lecture on Cryptography was that any
kind of cryptographic system should not rely on secret code. If there
are really secret parts in iLok then I see no choice in porting it to
Linux without official support from the keeper of this ominous secret code.

Maybe I should buy a Receptor and reverse engineer it? ;-)
