Program: DCMAP
Package: Part of the DCon Utility Set
Version: 1.0
Date: December 9, 1991
Author: George Spafford
Purpose:
To read a virgin, untampered directory, create a data file, and then when
the program is run, compare all of the files in the directory to see if
they are allowed or not.
Procedure:
Usage DCMAP /S:source /D:datafile /C
/S:source This is the directory & file spec that you want to
check. It must be specified.
/D:datafile This is the name for the filename control file.
If a name is not specified, "DCMAP.DAT" will be
used. The data file will have hidden and read-only
attributes.
/C Create the data file, or refresh it. If a data file
is not found, /C is automatically assumed. Note,
if you misspell the data file in the /D: option,
a new file will be created.
ANY UNAUTHORIZED FILES WILL BE DELETED. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE -
UNDERSTAND THIS PROGRAM BEFORE YOU USE IT.
DCMAP was created to allow administrators an easy way to weed junk files
out of directories (school labs are a prime example). One shortcoming of
this program is that it will not do directories at this time. I am still
trying to figure out the logic of recursive directory searches.
Now, keep in mind this program will delete any new files. To add files,
either strip the attributes from the data file and delete it, or use the /C
switch to update the default log file or the /D: log file.
THIS PROGRAM WILL DELETE FILES REGARDLESS OF THE ATTRIBUTES ON THE FILES.
I highly recommend that you use this program in a test directory for a while
with some dummy files before you attempt to implement it.
Register Me:
This package is a little different from some utility packages that are on the
market today. If you only like one or two programs, the individual programs
can be registered for $5 per concurrently used copy. The bargain (in my
eyes) is that the whole package is only $20. It is up to you whether or not
you want the entire package or only specific files. If this package, or one
of the utilities aids you, you should register your copy. For example, say you
want DCMAP & DCUPDAY, then you need only send $10. But please, if you use this
software, register it.
Sincerely,
