These steps are based on tutorial “Defeating Cisco IOU’s License Protection” and are adapted for Fedora Linux. After the video from you-tube was deleted the creator of video made the “patch” which you can check here.
Please, consider using IOU – it is meant for internal use only thus it is probably illegal to use in case you are not Cisco employee or partner. For further information about licensing, please visit this site. http://evilrouters.net/2011/01/18/cisco-iou-faq/

There is only one shared libcrypto library – /lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0d presented. All other files are symbolic links pointing to the library. Now create a symbolic link and check the list again:
Parameter r 7 replaces bytes starting at position 7 – string 75, with string 74 (counts from zero), in the block of ten bytes – a1 ff 83 c4 0c 85 c0 75 17 8b.
8. Redirect data sent to Cisco to the localhost
When IOU image is started, IOU image sends data to xml.cisco.com. You need to make “fake” DNS entry for xml.cisco.com to avoid this behaviour.
2222 – TCP port on which is wrapper listening 200 – application ID
In this case, none of the group of the interfaces are specified. They are two group of Ethernet interfaces created in IOU image by default. Each group always consists from four interfaces . The same is true for Serial interfaces.
File nvram_00200 is created and consists of saved configuration.
