What kind of password protection do you have in mind? If you disable autologin, then every time you restart, or log off, you need to login again. Then, you can go to the 'Screen Effects' preference pane and, in the 'Activation' tab, you can enable 'Use my user account password' when waking the screen effect. Finally, if you have a Pismo, you can use a recently released utility by Apple which will put a password in Open Firmware. Without that password, you won't be able to boot from a CD or another partition. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] fandango on core n.: [Unix/C hackers, from the Iberian dance] In C, a wild pointer that runs out of bounds, causing a core dump, or corrupts the malloc(3) arena in such a way as to cause mysterious failures later on, is sometimes said to have `done a fandango on core'. On low-end personal machines without an MMU (or Windows boxes, which have an MMU but use it incompetently), this can corrupt the OS itself, causing massive lossage. Other frenetic dances such as the cha-cha or the watusi, may be substituted.
