Gatekeeper version 1.3 of 12-Nov-93 by Chris Johnson (c)1988-1993


"Gatekeeper Extras READ ME"



The "Gatekeeper Extras" consist of this file, a Control Panel
named "Gatekeeper Privilege Mover", a text file named "Gatekeeper
Privileges.txt" and an application named "Gatekeeper Application". 
These items are not necessary in order to use the Gatekeeper
Anti-Virus System, but are included because they may be of use to
some advanced users - probably system administrators.

The primary component of the extras is the Gatekeeper Privilege
Mover (GkPM). GkPM allows you to move privileges between
Gatekeeper and text files in much the same way the Font/DA Mover
allows you to move fonts and DAs between the System and suitcase
files. If you are familiar with the operation of the Font/DA
Mover, GkPM should seem very familiar.

GkPM is particularly useful when you need to move privileges
between one version or one copy of Gatekeeper and another. It also
provides a convenient way to distribute updates to the default
privilege list. One thing to remember, though, GkPM only works
when used with a matching version of Gatekeeper. For example, GkPM
1.3 will only work with Gatekeeper 1.3. The text files created
by GkPM, however, can be read by any version of GkPM, so they are
version independent.

The "Gatekeeper Privileges.txt" file is a text file for use with
GkPM which contains the complete default privilege list included
with the Gatekeeper 1.3 distribution. You can use this file
simply for reference purposes, or to restore the default privileges
should anything ever happen to the privilege list in your copy of
Gatekeeper.

"Gatekeeper Application" is a program that makes it possible for
users of systems prior to 7.0 to use the Gatekeeper Privilege
Mover. The reason pre-7 users can't open GkPM in the Control Panel
desk accessory is that GkPM needs a much wider window than that
allowed for by the Control Panel DA. System 7 users will probably
not find much use for Gatekeeper Application, since they can open
GkPM like any other control panel. Refer to the "About..." box for a
slightly more complete explanation of the application's purpose and
workings.
