The all new password system!
This is a new password system that is simple to use and configure, you can use it at startup or as an unlocking program!
Code

os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw
InsertMainPassword = passwordmain
InsertSecondaryPassword = passwordsecondary

InsertQuarternaryPassword = passwordquarternary
InsertQuinaryPassword = passwordquinary
while true do
		term.clear()
		term.setCursorPos(1,1)
		term.write("Password:")
		local password = read()
	  
		if password == "passwordmain" then
				shell.run("ID")
		elseif password == "passwordsecondary" then
				shell.run("ID")
		elseif password == "passwordtertiary" then
				shell.run("ID")
		elseif password == "passwordquarternary" then
				shell.run("ID")
		elseif password -- "passwordquinary" then
				shell.run("ID")
		else
				term.print("Incorrect.Rebooting")
				sleep(5)
				os.reboot

You could literally just move lockunlock to startup instead of making another file.

Here's some things that could be improved!

Just by reading your code (I haven't even tested it, and I won't, there may be more):

• the passwords you set in the file can't be used, in fact, the password "passwordmain" will always work
  
• the password is readable while you're typing it
  
• os.pullEvent is never restored after running the password lock
  
• the password lock can never be stopped
  
• it can only run a program named "ID"
  
• it's simple enough someone could code it themselves, customized to their needs, if they really felt a need for it

If you're going to release a program on the forums, please put a little more effort into it. And test it first, I can see a syntax error in your code (although, you did catch it earlier and fix the pastebin).
