 Distribution
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This program is FREEWARE (yet :-)
You can do with it what you want (except disassembling and changing code).
But if you like it and/or use it, please send me simple postcard or e-mail.
And I'll be happy if you'll inform me, if you take it on any compilation
(CD or other).


 Disclaimer
~~~~~~~~~~~~
	No warranty is given that the program will work corectly. Any loss of
data, or other problems caused by this program can't be blamed on me. Use it
on your own risk.  


 Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	LogPass is a simple program written in AmigaE to protect your
computer or disk with login name and password.
	You can add users with their own logname and password. A number of
users is unlimited but a lot of users added can make that program will work
slower. You can put it in your startup-sequence.
	This program should work on any Amiga, but I test it just with ACDTV
OS 1.3 and 1M. Please contact me when something will be wrong...


 Manual
~~~~~~~~
	The first and the most important thing: in first using of this
program you will input your login name and password, wich will be your
'forever' data. If you forget it... you're lost. Well there is some way to
change it but I will write about it later.
	So, FIRST put LogPass into C directory and add into your
startup-sequence line:

LogPass

	Now, if you restart your system, there will be new window. Here you
MUST WRITE your Logname and Password you want to use. Logname is limitted to
12 letters, and password to 8 letters. 'add' logname is required for program,
so please don't use it (look above).
	In writing your logname & password you can using all letters and
numbers and backspace to step one letter back in logname and to start again
in password line.
	If everything will be OK, then window'll be closed and you'll see
that new user is added.
	At this moment in your S directory will be new file called 'xkad',
where will be keeped all data about users (in coded form). Try to restart
your system again. Write your login and password. If you have no mistakes
window'll be closed and you'll get information, that 'Login corect... system
is ready'. If there was some mistakes you'll get information 'Login
incorrect... system will be closed' and after few seconds your computer
should reset himself. I'm not sure that will work on every Amiga so contact
me if no...
	If you want to change your password or login you should to delete
xkad file. Unfortunately you'll loose data about other users, but in this
version there is no edit function (maybe next... look out).

	When you want to ADD OTHER USERS you should write 'add' as your login
name (WARNING: DON'T DO IT IF YOU USE THIS PROGRAM FIRST TIME !!!), then
program will ask you for YOUR login and password, and then if everything'll
be alright, LogPass will ask you for data of new user. Once you can add just
one user.

	Well, that's all.. it's simple, isn't it ?  ;-)


 New protect system  (TO OTHERS DEVELOPERS)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
	I think about make new protect (but not only) system.
I want to left logname with some information about user in memory after
login, so the other programs would use it. But there's a little problem. I
can allocate some memory for my data, but I must keep somewhere adres of this
allocated area to easy find it. It must be always the same place of memory.
The ones I know are cold warm and cool vectors, but if you use some anti
virus program that resets this vectors, I will lose my data...
	So I wait for some sugestion about it. Please help me... this could
be new, nice iformation & protection system on Amiga  :)
