Selecting the Security and Anti-Virus Options
W h e n y o u s e l e c t S e c u r i t y a n d A n t i - V i r u s f r o m t h e
Main Menu, you see the Security and Anti-Virus screen, which
allows you to set passwords and other options, as described
below.
Selecting password types
You can define both User and Supervisor password levels for
this system. If this computer will be used by more than one
person, you may want to set a Supervisor password for
yourself and a User password for others you don’t want to
have complete access to the system. This allows you to restrict
access to the computer’s diskette drives or the virus protection
features.
You must set the Supervisor password before you can set a
User password.
See the next sections for instructions on selecting the type of
password prompting you want and on entering, changing, or
deleting passwords.
N o t e
If both a Supervisor password and a User password are
enabled, SETUP displays options for setting the User
password only to users who logged on with a User
p a s s w o r d .
Selecting pass word prompting
If you enable the Password on boot option, you must
enter the Supervisor or User password each time you turn on
the system. If you disable this option, but you’ve defined
passwords, you must enter the password each time you start
SETUP.
