I don't think the password prevents access until the game has started. During the nation-selection phase, it seems anyone can go in and "overwrite" another players selection of nation with their own pretender?
AFAIK, there is no way to "protect" a nation until the game is started. It would be a nice added feature if "open" network games are to become more standard.

One solution, I believe, would be to have the game start offline, as a PBEM game, then go TCP/IP. Not counting the upload question, do the command line switch allow this?
