Troubleshooting guide

Using the System Setup Program 2-19
If a wrong or incomplete system password is entered, the following message appears
on the screen:
** Incorrect password. **
Enter password:
If an incorrect or incomplete system password is entered again, the same message
appears on the screen.
The third and subsequent times an incorrect or incomplete system password is
entered, the system displays the following message:
** Incorrect password. **
Number of unsuccessful password attempts: 3
System halted! Must power down.
The number of unsuccessful attempts made to enter the correct system password
can alert you to an unauthorized person attempting to use your system.
Even after your system is turned off and on, the previous message is displayed each
time an incorrect or incomplete system password is entered.
NOTE: You can use the Password Status option in conjunction with System Password
and Setup Password to further protect your system from unauthorized changes. For
more information, see “Password Status” found earlier in this chapter.
