No, I didn't.  My _last_ employer wanted that, but I wouldn't give it to 
them.  But the first one made no such request.  Actually, the last one 
didn't demand ALL that, only the right to erase everything on a whim. 
If I had accepted access from Parkview, it would have been by loading a 
profile that made the wipe possible.

For the other one, all I had to do was type in IP, ID, and password.

But see my correction on the other post.
