login1091

Short:        Console/Serial login utilities, v1.091
Architecture: m68k-amigaos

[This is a replacement for the 1.09 version which I released yesterday
with a couple of bugs that I thought I had fixed.]

Login is a program for AmigaDOS 2.0 and higher which allows access
restriction to both console and serial-line shells by means of Unix-
style password encryption.  Login utilities support any number of
usernames, each with a potentially unique password.  Console
restriction is similar to that of the NeXT login screen, while TTY
access resembles remote Unix login.  Supported features include:

- logging of successful and failed login attempts
- console lock, somewhat like XLock
- customization of environment after successful login
- multiple screen resolutions
- palette customization for login screen
- chsh, chfn, finger, last, nu utilities similar to Unix
- screen dimming/blanking for login screen
- etcetera

Version 1.091 fixes code bugs from version 1.00 (due to compiler
bugs) which prevented login from working on some Amigas.  It also
has a nicer manual.  If you feel a need to protect your Amiga from
undesirable users, I'm pretty sure you'll like these programs.

AmigaDOS 2.0 or higher is required; a hard-disk system is strongly
recommended.

New stuff is planned for future versions, including a windowed
new-user tool, customizable imagery, and custom fonts.  Future
possibilities include allowing distinct environments for
simultaneous users and more Unix-like multi-user features.
