Good question. I've thought about it in the past and may eventually. But the few times I've tried to get help, no one seemed interested. My primary goal is to provide other engineers with tools that enhance their abilities to support customers and minimize
downtime. I really enjoy helping people and <span style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important">I don't mind putting in the work and releasing these tools for free. However, I have a
problem making it open source when no one has ever stepped up to help with the research or coding.</span></div>

The original plan was actually to release these as paid tools. Some of the early testers of the backup decrypter had to provide MAC addresses for testing. But eventually I just looked at it as my contribution to the IT community. I've never made a dime off
this and probably never will. Though if anyone wants to buy me a beer, you know my PayPal address!

Interesting! Any documentation on that? I checked out the release notes for those versions and didn't come across anything pertaining to the remote support passphrase decode version. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't put this specific one
in the notes.</div>

If anyone comes across this, please let me know. If it's just an algorithm change, I imagine it would be Decode Version 4.</div>

I'm sure some of you noticed, but earlier this year Cisco started releasing patches to kill off the last sanctioned method of getting to platformConfig.xml. When you run "utils create report platform" on recent versions, it's no longer in the report. Someone
in Boxborough really knows how to put the "cus(s)" in "customers"!</div>

I'm testing a new version of the UCOS Password Decrypter that acquires the file for you. To use this feature, you enable remote support on your UCOS host then plug in the UCOS host IP, remote support user and remote support passphrase. The app decodes the
passphrase, pulls the file via SSH and displays the passwords.</div>
