NOTE
For security, characters you enter do not
appear on your screen. Enter your password
carefully.
If you enter the password incorrectly, your system does not
boot. You have three chances to enter the correct password.
After the third unsuccessful attempt, you must reboot your
system and try again.
NOTE
If you forgot your password, you must clear
the password by setting a jumper on the system
board (see “Clearing Your Password” in Chapter 6).
Once you clear the password, you can boot your
system and set a new password in Setup.
Dual password security provides two levels of password
security. An supervisor password allows access to the
system’s Setup utility for system configuration. A user
password allows system boot-up only after the entry of a
password.
User Setup Access
Use this field to prevent a user from accessing the Setup
utility. The default setting is “Enabled,” which allows the
user to access Setup. To prevent the user from accessing
Setup, highlight the field and press
Enter . Then highlight
“Disabled” and press Enter again.
Unattended Start
This field controls the point at which the user password is
required. The Unattended Start field can only be set if a
user password is in effect.
