Disabling the Kick-Start Utility
If you do not use the Kick-start utility to configure your system, you must disable it immediately. If the Kick-Start utility
is enabled, the system logs in automatically as administrator, which creates a security risk. The Kick-Start utility also
takes up system resources by constantly checking for configuration information.
To disable the Kick-Start utility, perform the following steps:
1. From the NAS Manager primary menu, click Maintenance.
2. Click Terminal Services.
3. Log in to the system as an administrator.
