>>I use a couple of fields in the users tables and do a check sum on the 2 -- see sys(2007) in VFP help. Then do a comparison within my code to make sure the fields have not been tampered with. If tampering detected, I terminate the application and have the app send me a Netware message.

Sounds like a good idea...I would still run the sys(2007) return value through a formula so it wouldn't be easy to crack for someone with the checksum formula, or someone with FoxPro who is aware of the sys(2007) function....
Take care,
