                    User's Guide For
             NIGHT WATCH - PC ACCESS CONTROL
          Copyright 1993 - All Rights Reserved

Program Setup

The maintenence mode of Night Watch is available only when 
User ID "SYSOP" is used with its corresponding password.  

Your first step in setting up Night Watch will be to add 
an alternate UserID & Password for yourself.  You will use 
this User ID & Password when you want to access your 
system without entering the maintenence mode.  Select the 
"Add User" option and enter your User ID and Password.  
You may wish to add User ID's and Password's for other 
authorized users at the same time.

For complete protection, Night Watch should be run from your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file at system startup.  Before installing Night
Watch in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file you should test the program 
to be sure that you know your UserID & Password.

To test the program, run Night Watch and enter each valid 
UserID & Password. Also test the screen saver by running 
Night Watch without entering any keystrokes for approximatly
2 minutes. The screen saver should activate after 1 minute of
inactivity and should remain active until a key is pressed.

After you are confident that Night Watch is operating 
properly on your computer, Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so 
that it runs Night Watch before executing any shell programs
such as DosShell or Windows.  This way Night Watch will run 
each time your computer is started.

Maintenence Options

Options are available to add, edit and delete authorized
users from your system.  If you accidently delete the 
"SYSOP" User ID, it will be automatically recreated with
the default password of "SYSOP" the next time Night Watch
is run.  In addition, the "SYSOP" password can be changed
only after registration of this program.  This feature is
designed to prevent shareware vendors and distributors from
changing the default password and inadvertently rendering the
program useless.

The Security Log option lets you view and edit the access log
which is maintained by the program.  The access log contains
time stamped entries for all attempts to access your system.
You should periodically edit this log file to remove older
data and maintain it at a file size of less than 32k bytes.
