Security To control access to your server, you can implement several security measures, including password protection. Password Overview: Two types of passwords are available with the server: administrator and user. You can set both passwords using the Setup program and the System Configuration Utility program. If you have a password set, Enter Password appears on the screen to prompt you. (The passwords do not appear on the screen as you type them.) If you enter the wrong password, Enter Password appears again. After three incorrect attempts, you must power-off the server and start again. Notes You can use any combination of up to seven characters (A-Z, a-z, and 0-9) for the passwords. The system does not differentiate between lowercase and uppercase characters. For additional security, do not make the user and administrator passwords the same. Keep a record of your password in a secure place. The following information summarizes the levels of security with the different levels of password protection. 38 Netfinity Server HMM
