In depth

A closer look at Screen Pass

The hotkey activates the screen saver, even from a DOS session. While the screen saver is active, is disabled to ensure network security. By default, the program displays a bouncing football screen saver, but you can configure Screen Pass to display any bitmap or to use the display from any other screen saver.
Screen Pass verifies passwords on Novell Netware, Banyan Vines and Microsoft NT networks. If not logged on to a network, it can protect workstations with a local password . Visitors can leave messages to be displayed when the workstation is unlocked. Reporting of elapsed time, user ID, and failed password attempts is optional.
The program also includes administrator features such as password override, an automatic logout option, centralized configuration management, and the ability to prevent users from deactivating Screen Pass. French, German, and Swedish language versions are also available.
