Description
===========
  "passwd" is a small tool to protect your machine form unauthorized access.
  It's not so hard to break it, so it may work for unexperienced users.

Features
========
  - 128-bit
  - MUI-GUI
  - Disk-log

Requirements
============
  - AmigaOS3.x
  - MUI 3.8

Installation
============
  Copy the executable to C:

Usage
=====
  "passwd" does only work from a shell or script.

  Arguments
  ---------
  K=KEY,MK=MAKEKEY

  K=KEY      - operate using <KEY>
  MK=MAKEKEY - generate a key

  First you need to generate a key form your password.
  It's a 128-bit CRC of the password.

  Open a shell and type:

  C:passwd mk test1234

  This will output:
    Insert the following text after 'IPrefs' in your startup-sequence:
    C:passwd 8C9AE431D738118E12DD991BA9452323

  Now do the above and your setup.

  At the next reboot a small window will popup and ask you to enter the
  password. In our example, you need to enter 'test1234' to gain access.
  If the entered password was incorrect a delay of 1 minute is started.
  After the delay you can try to enter the password again. If it's again
  wrong a delay of 3 minutes is started, like 1,3,9,27,81 mins...

  Additionally, all access is logged to C:passwd.log, witch is not write-
  or deleteable.

  I will give no hints on how to break it, because every experienced user
  does know it :)
