I can check to see if there is a license in the Freesurfer v5 Ubuntu VM I mentioned in the previous email and send it to you to try. But per my last email, I don’t know a way to decode an old license on newer versions of the OS where glibc has been updated short of re-compiling what decodes the license.. The most practical option may be to run FS 5.3 on a server that hosts an old version of Ubuntu that works with your existing license. That can be done using a headless VM or container where the image runs off an SSD with a hefty amount of RAM assigned to it. Ubuntu supports QEMU virtualization like most linux OS’s and I think you just install those packages from the linux repos. For commercial software, VMware has enterprise level server hosting options for these kinds of tasks.

External Email - Use Caution
Hi!
Would it be possible to obtain a license file for Freesurfer v5.3 that is compatible with the glibc versions on newer Linux systems? That would go a long way in resolving our issues.
Thank you,
Caspar
