The Supervisor password must be set before setting the User password or Network Server
mode. Once the Supervisor password is set, the Supervisor can access and change all
fields in the Setup Utility screens.
Network Server Mode – When set, the system prompts for a password when booting
from a flexible disk or CD-ROM, but not when booting from a hard drive. The power
switch and keyboard are locked until the password is typed.

password to enter the Setup Utility or complete the boot process.
If the User password is set, the user may change the system time, date, user password,

view all screens in the Setup Utility, but can't alter all of the settings.
