- Description:
-
- ZipTools is a simple module to give access to the more advanced facilities
- of the Iomega SCSI Zip drive, including ejecting and password protection.
-
- ZipID - This lets you specify the SCSI ID of your ZIP drive.
- ZEject - This tells the drive to eject the current disk.
- ZWProt - Write protects the current disk. If you use Wprot -p, then it
- will ask you for a password. Once password write-protection is
- set, you will be unable to modify the disk in any way without
- giving the password beforehand. If you don't use a password,
- then you can unprotect the disk without a password.
- ZUnprot - Unset the current protections. This restores the disk to a
- non-passworded read/write enabled form. If a password is
- required to achieve this, you will be prompted for one.
- ZProt - This protects the current disk against reading or writing. If
- the disk is already password-protected, you will be asked to
- supply the old password first. ZProt always requires a password
- to be set. Note yet again that if you use this function and then
- forget the password, the only way out will be to format the disk.
- ZStatus - This reports the current protection status of the disk.
- ZUnlock - This restores the permissions to read/write until the disk is
- ejected from the drive. If a password is required to achieve
- this, then you will be prompted.
