PWRD is a small utility to allow users the ability to implement
passwords into their system. This system is great for running
from batch files, and especially good from an AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Syntax : PWRD /S /A /F
Where : '/S' is the option to change the password
'/A' is the option to change the retry count
'/F' is the option to change the fail type
fail type may be: errorlevel
system halt
system reboot
Defaults: Initial Password is SEBFU
Initial retry count is 3
Initial fail mode is errorlevel
ERRORLEVELS: 255 (0FF) = Program Problem (call Author)
254 (0FE) = Invalid Password (Fail Mode Errorlevel)
253 (0FD) = Invalid Option
252 (0FC) = User Aborted
251 (0FB) = I/O or file not found
** NOTES ** User is prompted at run time for any option which the
user has requested a change of . NO options are allowed to be
changed, untill a valid password has been entered. Password
keystrokes are echo with the block character to maintain password
security during input.
For additional usage and information on using these utilities see
the file SEBFU.DOC or BATUT.DOC.

EXAMPLES:
PWRD
Waits for a password to be entered. The user is given 3 trys as
the default, with a prompt at each attempt.
PWRD /S
This usage will prompt the user for a new password after
prompting for the original. The original password must be entered
correctly before PWRD will set the new one.
PWRD /A
Prompts the user for a new retry count (2 thru 9) after first
prompting for the original password. The original password must
be entered correctly before PWRD will set the new one.
PWRD /F
Prompts the user for a fail mode (what to do when the user enters
an incorrect password), after first prompting for the original
password. The original password must be entered correctly before
PWRD will set the new one.
** NOTE ** Fail modes are : ERRORLEVEL this is a value which
may be evaluated directly from a batch file.
HALT The system will hang up
and do nothing, till a reboot occurs.
REBOOT Reboots the system
