Enabling TSETUP access in user password mode
There are two ways to display the menu letting you provide access to
TSETUP and other restrictions imposed by the supervisor password.
When you register a supervisor password and when you enter the
command
SVPW/U
at the DOS prompt.
To prevent a user from using this switch to access TSETUP, the supervisor
must copy the SVPW.EXE file to a diskette and delete it from the hard
disk.

appears.

at the DOS prompt and press
