Setup Program
Password on Boot
Your server comes with the Password on boot feature set to
Disabled. If you enable this feature, you must enter a password
each time you start the system. To enable this feature:
1. Start the Setup program.
2. Select the Security menu option.
3. Type either your supervisor or user password in the Password
on boot data field.
Diskette Drive Access
The setting for this option controls who has access to the diskette
drives (user and supervisor, or supervisor only). Your server is
shipped with this feature set to User, so that both the user and
supervisor have diskette drive access. To change this setting so that
only the supervisor has access, select the Security menu option and
enter the word Supervisor in the Diskette access data field. If the
supervisor and user passwords are enabled, only the supervisor can
change this setting.
Fixed Disk Boot Sector
The setting for this option indicates whether the boot sector of your
hard disk is write-protected. Write-protecting the boot sector helps
to prevent viruses from corrupting your hard disk. (See your User's
Reference for additional information about viruses.) Your server is
shipped with this feature set to Normal. To change this setting so
that the disk is write-protected, select the Security menu option and
enter Write Protect in the Fixed disk boot sector data field. If the
supervisor and user passwords are enabled, only the supervisor can
change this setting.
