DLS security stamps

[CH®IS <sh@xxxxx>]

For those of you using DSC's DLS software, I could use some advice about the
security stamp feature.

I just installed DLS, entered a security stamp, created an account, copied
the account files to another folder and uninstalled DLS including deleting
its C:\DLS folder.

I then reinstalled DLS, entered a new security stamp, copied the account
files back in, and it loaded the file just fine.

So I'm left wondering what the point is of the security stamp?  I'm playing
with this because I'd like to wipe out our laptop and DLS is one of the few
things that would get reinstalled.  However, I don't want to lose access to
all the accounts on there, and the person who set it up passed away years
ago, leaving little chance of ever finding that stamp to reuse.

Any tips would be great.  I'm not even sure if this would be something
anyone's played with, but ya never know.
