Art,

I don't recall BOUNCER ever having the ability to password protect ports.
There was a CLS utility (PORTPASS perhaps) that would do this for you.

I am sure many will suggest a security package like Security/3000.

But MPE scripting will do the trick also. And the UDC containing the
password can be kept in a group that globally allows eXecute access only
preventing prying eyes from attempting to read the file. Here is a sample:

logonudc
option LOGON,NOLIST,NOBREAK,NOHELP
if hpldevin = 21 or hpldevin = 100 then
echo You have accessed a private computer system for business use only!
echo All sign on and data usage is logged!
echo Any misuse will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law!
echo
setvar pass_attempt 0
while pass_attempt < 3
   set echo=off
   input name=user_response;prompt = "Enter Password >"
   echo
   set echo=on
   setvar user_response ltrim(rtrim(user_response))
   if user_response = "MyPassWord" then
        return
   endif
   setvar pass_attempt pass_attempt + 1
endwhile
tellop ********************************************************
tellop *  Bad modem password entered on ldev !hpldevin
tellop ********************************************************
bye
endif
