Does anyone have experience with a hard-disk protection program
called "The Nightwatch", published by Kent Marsh Ltd?  It's a progam
which password-protects hard disks from unauthorized usage, requiring
a password to mount them on the Mac desktop.

I'm interested both in good and bad experiences with the program;  how much did
it get in your way when trying to use the Mac, any incompatibilities
with other products, hard disk repair problems when the disk is inaccessible
to the repair person, etc?

Feel free to email responses to me, or post in reply if you feel it's of
general interest.  If anyone mails me, I send them what info I get, or summarize
to the net if I get enough responses.

Thanks much;  see you around the bit stream!
