Well, for those uninformed out there who believe that you can penetrate an NT box using NTFSDOS, the problem remains that security in windows NT is a combination between the filesystem NTFS and the actual operating system, NT. NTFSDOS only allows reading the drives, not writing to them. NT also keeps the security registry keys/information in approximately 25 areas, not in 1 password file. So.. ya can't "erase a password file under NT" because they don't exist. There's my 2 cents for this 60+ letter a day mailing list.

I guess Norton Utilities for DOS don't work if you have NTFSDOS loaded, then. Lyal

no... from what I read.... NT's security features only work on NTFS formated drives... if you where to run it on a drive with a FAT partition then you wouldn't get to use any of it's security features cbg
