INTRODUCTION 1
------------
COMPSEC.EXE is a small utility that will add up additional 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. Add it as the first line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file or simply
run it from a menu program like AUTOMENU to access any of your Dos
programs. COMPSEC keeps an activity log each time it is executed.
PROGRAM FILES
-------------
**************************** IMPORTANT NOTE *****************************
* COMPSEC.EXE, COMPSEC.LOG, AND PW.DAT MUST BE IN THE SAME DIRECTORY *
*************************************************************************
COMPSEC.EXE = This is the password program. When called from the command
line or a Batch file it looks for PW.DAT in the current directory, gets
your previously saved password and compares it to the users input. If the
password is incorrect COMPSEC will sound 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 = Ascii file containing the users password. This file is not
included with the program. Your password will be saved to the current
directory and drive after you run COMPSEC.EXE. This file must be in the
same directory you call COMPSEC.EXE from.
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 Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:41:11
If PW.DAT is not found the following line will be written to the log.
System Access On Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:41:15
┌──────[ WARNING ]───────┐
│ PW.DAT Not Found │
└────────────────────────┘
New PW.DAT Created
When the correct password is entered the following line is added:
Correct Password Entered!
A normal log on will look something like this:
System Access On Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:42:50
Correct Password Entered!
If an illegal attempt is made the following lines are added:
System Access On Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:42:16
┌──────[ WARNING ]───────┐
│ Illegal Attempt Made │
└────────────────────────┘

If the attempt is successfull the following line is added:
Correct Password Entered!
If the user shuts off the computer the following line is added:
(Note the line "Correct Password Entered!" is missing)
System Access On Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:43:31
If the PW.DAT is not found then the following line is added:
System Access On Saturday 6 November 1993.
15:44:12
┌──────[ WARNING ]───────┐
│ PW.DAT Not Found │
└────────────────────────┘
New PW.DAT Created
Correct Password Entered!
System Access On Saturday 30 October 1993.
14:20:27
The ideal will be to use COMPSEC as the first line on your AUTOEXEC.BAT
in that way as soon as the computer boots up and COMPSEC is executed the
following lines will be written to COMPSEC.LOG:
System Access On Saturday 30 October 1993.
14:20:27
If the illegal user shuts off the computer the following line will not be
found at the end of the entry in COMPSEC.LOG:
Correct Password Entered!
Look at APPENDIX A for a sample COMPSEC.LOG.
INSTALLATION
------------
Unzip the program and type INSTALL (This will install COMPSEC.EXE and
utilities to the root directory C:\). Then add the following line to your
AUTOEXEC.BAT:
COMPSEC
4
If you don't like this arrangement do the following: Fist, unzip the
program and copy COMPSEC.EXE to the directory of your choice or make one.
If you are planning on calling COMPSEC.EXE from a directory other than
the one it resides ensure that the selected directory is included in the
PATH COMMAND in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Ensure PW.DAT is in the same
directory. If you have any questions about PATH COMMAND or AUTOEXEC.BAT
look it up in your DOS manual.
********************************* NOTE **********************************
*IT'S POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO HAVE DIFFERENT PASSWORDS (PW.DAT) IN DIFFERENT*
*DIRECTORIES FOR DIFFERENT PROGRAMS AND ONLY ONE COMSEC.EXE IN YOUR ROOT*
*DIRECTORY. *
*************************************************************************
SAMPLE AUTOEXEC.BAT USE
-----------------------
The following example shows how to make a sample AUTOEXEC.BAT that
will execute COMPSEC at "booting" time.
*********************************** NOTE *********************************
*IF YOU HAVE AUTOEXEC.BAT IN YOUR ROOT DIRECTORY MAKE A COPY OF IT AND*
*SAVE IT BECAUSE THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLE WILL OVERWRITE IT. *
**************************************************************************
From the command line:
type CD\ Press Enter.
type COPY CON:AUTOEXEC.BAT Press Enter.
type ECHO OFF Press Enter.
type CLS Press Enter.
type COMPSEC Press Enter.
type $P$G Press Enter.
type PATH = C\; Press Enter.
press F-6 Key Press Enter.
the file AUTOEXEC.BAT will be saved to your disk. Next change dir to
the directory you put COMPSEC.EXE in. At the Dos prompt type: COMPSEC and
make sure you follow the following rules:
If you enter the following password --------> My Password*4! -\
When COMPSEC ask for your password type ----> My Password*4! -\
ensure you type the exact password including all characters. If you use
capital letters, make sure that the you enter capital letters only where
you used them and include all spaces. If not you will not be allowed
access.
