(404) 475-8787 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Installation * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * On the X-LOCK 1 distribution diskette you should have the following files: README.DOC - documentation (this file) 1INSTALL.EXE - install / uninstall program PASSWORD.EXE - password change program EMERACC.EXE - emergency access program LOGON.SYS - security driver SUSPEND.COM - suspend utility SHOWME.EXE - module version utility WHO.EXE - unauthorized logon audit utility If you downloaded these files from a network or BBS, copy all of them to a blank diskette. We will refer to this disk as your "INSTALL diskette". The current version of 1install requires that the installation be done from this diskette. Please be sure to make a backup of this diskette. Installation of X-Lock 1 is SIMPLE. There are three(3) steps: 1. Format a bootable system diskette for use by installation program 2. Execute the A:1INSTALL program to install programs 3. Execute the PASSWORD program to activate your password UN-Installation of X-Lock 1 is also SIMPLE. There is one(1) step: 1. Execute the A:1INSTALL program to un-install programs >>>> NOTE: The XLOCK-1 must be un-installed prior to changing DOS levels * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Installation - Step One * * * * * * * * * * * INSTALLATION - STEP ONE First obtain ANOTHER diskette that will fit in your bootable diskette drive, (most of the time this is drive a:). Format this diskette with the standard DOS command: FORMAT X:/S where X is the bootable drive on your PC This bootable diskette will be used later as the "EMERGENCY ACCESS" diskette. Please label as EMERGENCY ACCESS and which PC it is for. Please place it aside and re-insert the "INSTALL" diskette. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Installation - Step two * * * * * * * * * * * INSTALLATION - STEP TWO Next get to the bootable drive prompt, for instance A:\ Once you see the prompt above invoke the install program like this: 1install <source>: <target>: where source is your bootable diskette drive and target is your bootable hard disk. Once you have invoked 1install.exe a screen will appear asking you if you want to install or un-install. Select "I" to install. A menu will now appear with the current status (installed/un-installed) of all available X-Lock options. You may select each option by pressing the button that represents it. For example if you chose to install Access Control you would press the '1' button on your keyboard. NOTE: Access Control MUST be installed prior to any other module. You will then be prompted to insert the formatted system diskette you made earlier. After 1install.exe is finished with the "Emergency Access Diskette" you may install additional options (if purchased) or quit the program. You must now re-boot your computer before you can finish installing X-LOCK 1. The install program will assist by re-booting for you. NOTE: YOU MUST REBOOT ! The "Emergency Access" diskette created above can be used to obtain "Emergency Access" should you ever get locked out of your PC. Keep this disk in a safe place as it can be used to circumvent the security system. Also, each emergency access diskette is unique to the PC where it was created. DO NOT USE AN EMERGENCY ACCESS DISKETTE CREATED ON ONE PC ON ANOTHER PC. Use of the emergency access disk on the wrong PC will destroy the PC's data, and it will not be recoverable. Each PC must have its own unique Emergency Access Diskette. The Emergency Access diskettes are not interchangable between PC's. The procedures for using the Emergency Access diskette are described below. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Installation - Step three * * * * * * * * * * INSTALLATION - STEP THREE cd xlock <enter> password <enter> The password program will obtain your account name and password that you create (up to twenty characters). It is advisable to use at least eight characters each. X-Lock 1 is now completely installed. To make it active, the computer must now be RE-BOOTED. THATS IT!! NOTE: The PASSWORD.EXE and other utility programs must be executed out of the XLOCK subdirectory, or a "PATH=C:\XLOCK" must be included in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. NOTE: The XLOCK programs require that the XLOCK subdirectory be located off of the root directory. Do not attempt to move the installed programs to another directory. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * UN-Install * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * UNINSTALL - STEP ONE First insert the "INSTALL" diskette into the bootable drive (A). Next get to the bootable drive prompt, for instance A:\ Once you see the prompt above Invoke the uninstall program like this: 1install <source> <target> where source is your bootable diskette drive and target is your bootable hard disk. Once you have invoked 1install.exe a screen will appear asking you if you want to install or un-install. Select "U" to uninstall. A menu will now appear with the current status (installed/un-installed) of all available X-Lock options. You may select each option by pressing the button that represents it. For example if you chose to install Access Control you would press the '1' button on your keyboard. The uninstall program will now remove the appropriate programs and drivers from your computer. You must now re-boot your computer in order to completely remove X-LOCK 1. The uninstall program will assist by re-booting for you. NOTE: YOU MUST REBOOT ! NOTE: DO NOT attempt manually un-install any of the XLOCK files. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * EMERGENCY ACCESS * * * * * * * * * * * * * The "Emergency Access" diskette created during installation can be used to obtain "Emergency Access" should you ever get locked out of your PC. Keep this disk in a safe place as it can be used to circumvent the security system. EMERGENCY ACCESS PROCEDURES In the unlikely event you are locked out of your PC the Emergency Access disk can generally be used to unlock the system. If you are unable to unlock your PC after following the Emergency Access procedures then contact your dealer or X-Lock Corporation for further assistance. Each emergency access diskette is unique to the PC where it was created. DO NOT USE AN EMERGENCY ACCESS DISKETTE CREATED ON ONE PC ON ANOTHER PC. Each PC must have its own unique Emergency Access Diskette. Follow these steps CAREFULLY: 1. Locate the "EMERGENCY ACCESS" diskette and "ACCESS CONTROL" diskettes that were created in the installation process. 2. Boot your PC from the A: drive with your Emergency Access Diskette and obtain an A:> prompt. Then type EMERACC xxxxxxxx Where xxxxxxxx is the key you wrote down during the installation process. While running the EMERACC program you should have seen the message Emergency Disk Recovery Complete 3. Press any key to continue. The machine will automatically reboot and UN-INSTALL all X-LOCK related device drivers and files. 4. When the machine is finished press "q" to quit. The machine will once again reboot. 5. You are now ready to re-install X-LOCK 1. NOTE: THIS "EMERGENCY ACCESS" DISKETTE IS A "FEATURE". IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE USED!! IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO KEEP THE EMERGENCY ACCESS DISKETTE JUST DESTROY IT. OUR TECHNICAL SUPPORT DEPARTMENT IS AVAILABLE TO ASSIST THE USER SHOULD THEY GET "LOCKED OUT" OF THEIR SYSTEM. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * UTILITY PROGRAMS * * * * * * * * * * * * * The following utility programs are included to enhance your system: 1) SUSPEND.COM - suspend utility 2) SHOWME.EXE - module version utility 3) WHO.EXE - unauthorized logon audit utility These programs are executed from the DOS command prompt. 1) SUSPEND - This program provides a means of securing a machine that has been inactive for a pre-determined period of time. It also provides a "hot-key" that will secure the machine while the operator is away from the computer. The screen will go blank, depressing any key will display the log-on screen. When the operator returns, a simple log-on will resume the operator to the "suspended" program. Both the time period and the "hot-key" are set as command parameters. Type SUSPEND ? for more information Note: This program may not work with certain graphic-based programs. 2) SHOWME - This program will display the versions of the XLOCK modules. 3) WHO - This program will display all unsuccesfull log-on attempts. This will let you know that someone has TRIED to use your machine!! Note: This program will not log attempts made from the SUSPEND log-on banner. Note: This program uses the PC/AT clock and date information. Several older PCs do not have real-time-clocks. The date stamps therefore will be inaccurate in these machines. The illegal logon attempt will still be logged. NOTE: These utility programs must be executed out of the XLOCK subdirectory, or a "PATH=C:\XLOCK" must be included in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┬────────────────── │User Registration: │YES!
