Password Support

Two Levels of Password Protection

Provides both a Supervisor and a User password. If you use

both passwords, the Supervisor password must be set first.
The system can be configured so that all users must enter a

password every time the system boots or when Setup is exe-

cuted, using either or either the Supervisor password or User

password.
The Supervisor and User passwords activate two different lev-

els of password security. If you select password support, you

are prompted for a one to six character password. Type the

password on the keyboard. The password does not appear on

the screen when typed. Make sure you write it down. If you for-

get it, you must drain NVRAM and re-configure.
