WL - Workstation Lock
Version 1.01, March 1990
This program is used in locking a workstation whilst other
tasks are executing. The primary reason for WL's existence
is PROFS and LAN Server! I dislike having to log off from a
3090 session or a LAN connection just to go to a meeting or
lunch. Also, when I'm in the process of a file copy, file
transfer or any other task - I don't wish to be interrupted.
Unfortunately, many of my co-workers have access to my
office and like to treat all workstations as their own (you
know who you are).
This program prevents the unauthorized use of such 'logged
on' sessions.
OK, sure, they can just CTRL-ALT-DEL, but then they need
passwords to get back onto the 3090, LAN or other system.
To use, simply set a password, select GO! and the program
takes control. You need to type the password in, press enter
or click on OK in the dialog box, and you can continue.
What's new in this version.
Password is now remembered between WL invocations.
Logging for activities has been added.
The password is now hidden as it gets typed in.
The LOG file (WL.LOG) is created in the directory where
WL is invoked from.
If you like this program and wish to endow the author with
monetary gifts of all kinds (no offer too small) then submit
your pecuniary devices to:
