INTRODUCTION 1
------------
COMPSEC.EXE is a small utility that will add password protection to
your system. Use it to have exclusive access to your computer or just for
those important programs you don't want anybody else in your job or home
to use. COMPSEC installs automatically and makes all necessary changes to
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. COMPSEC keeps an activity log each time it is
executed. Ideal for use with menu programs or batch files.
Additional utilities included are disk and file encryption, utilities
to enable and disable disks drives, and boot logger. Your imagination is
the limit on how you can use this utilities.
PROGRAM FILES
-------------
COMPSEC.EXE = This is the password program. When called from the command
line or a Batch file, if configured for one user, it asks for the user's
password and compares it to the previously saved password. If configured
for more than one user, it asks for the user's key, and then compares the
input with the previously saved password. If the password is incorrect it
sounds and audible alarm and give the user unlimited chances to repeat
his or her input. The only way out is entering the correct password.
COMPSEC.DOC = Users Manual. This file.
PW*.DAT = File(s) containing user(s) password(s). This file(s) are not
included with the program. Your password(s) will be saved to the current
directory and drive after you run CONFIG.EXE. This file(s) must be in the
same directory you run COMPSEC.
ENCRYPT.EXE = Utility to encrypt/decrypt floppies. Once a floppy has been
encrypted it is unreadable and cannot be decrypted by any other means.
Each registered copy of COMPSEC is unique and will not decrypt a floppy
that has been encrypted by another copy of COMPSEC.
FENCRYPT.EXE = Utility to encrypt/decrypt files.
ENABLE.COM/DISABLE.COM = Utility to enable/disable drives.
SURFER.EXE = Utility that writes to a log the date and time each time you
run it. Use it with batch files or dos menu programs.
REGISTER.FRM = Registration form.
COMPSEC.LOG = Ascii file containing COMPSEC's activities. Here is how it
works. When COMPSEC.EXE is called from a Batch file or the command line,
for the very first time it writes the following lines to COMPSEC.LOG:
COMPSEC.LOG Not Found
New Log Started On Tuesday 23 August 1994.
15:41:11
If PW*.DAT is not found the following message will be written to the log:
┌──────[ WARNING ]───────┐
│ PW.DAT Not Found │
└────────────────────────┘
2
Note:
At this point the program exits and allows the user to configure COMPSEC.
When the correct password is entered the following message is added:
Correct Password Entered!
A normal log on will look something like this:
System Access By Key # 1 On Tuesday 23 August 1994.
15:42:50
Correct Password Entered!
If an illegal attempt is made the following lines are added:
System Access By Key # 1 On Tuesday 23 August 1994.
15:42:16
┌──────[ WARNING ]───────┐
│ Illegal Attempt Made │
└────────────────────────┘
Tuesday 23 August 1994.
15:42:24
Attempted Password ═════ SURFER
If the attempt is successfull the following message is added:
Correct Password Entered!
If the user shuts off the computer, but first entered a key number, the
log will look like this:
(*** Note the line "Correct Password Entered!" is missing***)
System Access By Key # 1 On Tuesday 23 August 1994.
15:43:31
This log will grow in size and eventually you'll want to delete it.
Simply delete it and Compsec will take care of the rest. A new log will
be started automatically.
INSTALLATION
------------
At the Dos prompt type INSTALL and hit enter. COMPSEC will ask you for
a drive letter, directory name, and drive your computer boots from. To
accept default settings just hit enter. All program files will be copied
to the selected directory, your program will be configured, and necessary
changes will be made to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Finnaly it will boot up
your computer to ensure COMPSEC was installed correctly.
