Working with security options This section describes some of the security options that are available for your server. To help prevent hardware theft you can use the cover lock and add a security U-bolt and cable to your server. To erase lost or forgotten passwords in order to set up password protection, you can move the CMOS clear (password) jumper on the system board. Important Clearing CMOS memory erases the configuration of your server. Therefore, you must, reconfigure the server after clearing CMOS memory. If possible, record the configuration information of your server before moving the CMOS jumper. Use the Configuration/Setup Utility program to set, change, or delete passwords. To help deter software and data theft, you can set the diskette write-protect switch on the system board to prevent writing data to diskettes. The following list is a quick reference to these procedures: "Installing a security U-bolt" on page 118 "Erasing lost or forgotten passwords" on page 122 "Setting the diskette write-protect switch" on page 125 Netfinity 8655 - Type 8655 117
