Archive-name: netloc10/part01
I asked for reviewers on this one, and got some great reviews, to the
point that there is a file of reviews included with this submission.
The reviewers, in order of reviews returned, are:
favor@ecst.csuchico.edu
marcus@bart.cs.mcgill.ca
ckirie@csg.uwaterloo.ca
The submitter made the following claims, and the reviewers seem to feel
that the program more or less does what it says. However, there are
other, free, programs which do similar things.
# Restrict an application to run only when the user is logged in
to a nominated file server
# limit the number of simultaneous users
# log usage to a file
# password protect.
NETLOCK works by modifying an applications's binary and making it
execute-only. This messes up CRC checking schemes, external or internal
to the program.
Note that there is no doc file in the archive, but one may be generated
by running the program as "netlock /d >netlock.doc". I would have pulled
the doc file out and included it in the archive, but with these reviews
you should have a good idea what it does without going to the trouble
unless you're actually going to try it.
