HDPass v1.01, Sam Becket - 1995
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
HDPass is yet another hard drive password protection program.
So why another password program you may ask?
I wrote this program because all the other password programs
i have used in the past all seem to have slight, but annoying
problems with them.
Problems with other password programs are :
* Sometimes have to enter a stupid username before password
* Slow to enter and leave program
* Non-crypted passwords
* Invisible input (cant see how many letters you type in)
* etc...
Features of HDPass
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Clear password entry
* Quick and easy to use
* Easy password change (press F1)
* Crypted password
* Visible letter input
Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Non, Works with any Amiga! (Yes, even a 500!)
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
To install simply click on the Install_HDPass icon and then add
the instruction C:HDPass to the first line (or near there) of your
user-startup script in the S: directory, using a suitable text editor
(eg. Ed or TextEd).
**************************** IMPORTANT ***************************
** ~~~~~~~~~ ** *
** The FIRST time you run HDPass, use the initial password **
** of 'becket' (all in lower case), this can then be changed **
** by simply pressing F1 next time. **
** **
******************************************************************
Usage
~~~~~
Simply enter the password!
To change the password press 'F1' and enter the old password,
then the new password.
