Change User/Supervisor Password

You can install a Supervisor password, and if you install a supervisor
password, you can then install a user password. A user password does
not provide access to many of the features in the Setup utility.

If you highlight these items and press Enter, a dialog box appears which
lets you enter a password. You can enter no more than six letters or
numbers. Press Enter after you have typed in the password. A second
dialog box asks you to retype the password for confirmation. Press Enter
after you have retyped it correctly. The password is required at boot time,
or when the user enters the Setup utility.

Removing the Password

Highlight this item and type in the current password. At the next dialog
box press Enter to disable password protection.
