I'm not an expert in Altair CP/M but I do remember one other aspect. It
wasn't password protection but I do remember the concept of differnt user
#'s. It wasn't complicated but somthing like user #'s 1-8. Once you
were that user I seem to remember only the files belonging to that user
showing up...
Might be a dead end... Just a thought...
