ASSWORDS
Unless otherwise stated, all passwords consist of between one and sixteen
ASCII characters. When specifying passwords in Terminal Server commands,
either enclose the password in quotation marks and include it in the
command line, or enter the command without the password and let the
Terminal Server prompt you for it. You can omit the password value and be
prompted for it only in the case where the password characteristic is the only
characteristic in the command line. Note that passwords are case sensitive, for
example, “SYSTEM” and “system” are different.
The Terminal Server does not echo a password that is entered in response
to a password prompt. When you specify a new password, the Terminal Server
displays a verification prompt and waits for you to re-enter the password
(which again is not echoed). If both entries match, the password is approved
and the local mode prompt is displayed. If the password is rejected, the
Terminal Server returns to the local mode prompt. You can press <Ctrl/Z>
at any time to interrupt password processing and return to the local mode
prompt.
You can change the Terminal Server characteristics LOGIN PASSWORD
and PRIVILEGED PASSWORD, but you cannot clear them; you can change
or clear the service characteristic PASSWORD and the Terminal Server
characteristic ACCESS PASSWORD.
To clear a service password, specify quotation marks with nothing in
between them (“ ”) in place of the password in the command line.
The privileged mode of the Terminal Server is password protected.
