I stumbled across the Open Firmware Password Utility in the /Applications/Utilities directory on the 10.1 upgrade CD.
It doesnt appear to work, has anyone had much luck with it ?

It' should be used to set and remove open-firmware passwords to
help protect a powerbook for example.

Cheers,
Ben.

(one article plus small update near the bottom)
... and don't forget to tell us whether it worked

Alternatively, you can do this by hand. It isn't difficult.

I could, I did, but now there's a nice app to do it for me.
I'd like to make it work.

Cheers,
Ben.
