22. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/R1/lib64/

23. /usr/autodesk/maya2011-x64/bin/adlmreg -i S 657C1 657C1 2011.0.0.F 666-42943644 /var/opt/Autodesk/Adlm/Maya2011/MayaConfig.pit

24. cd ‘/home/user/maya2011/crack’

now open crack file with scite or gedit , then add this line after line number 7

sudo cp ./libadlmint.so.1.3.34-hack /usr/lib/libadlmint.so.1.3.34

25. ./crack

This fix found by friend for Maya 2011 hot fix 2

– before installing I’ve renamed the /var/opt/Autodesk/Adlm to Adlm_orig (this helped me a lot)…
– I’ve re-installed the adlm programs, they’ve created the Adlm directory again
– then I copied the MayaConfig.pit from the Adlm_orig/Maya2011 to Adlm/Maya2011 (also created the Maya2011 directory by hand)
– replaced the libadlmint.so.1.3.34 with the cracked one
– I run the ./setup script from maya to register the 666-42943644 serial number
– then used ./adlmreg again to unregister and re-register the 666-42943644 serial number (to ensure, I don’t think that it is necessity)
– then run maya without any problem
