Using the System Password Features

NOTICE: The password features provide a basic level of security for the
data on your system. However, they are not foolproof. If your data requires
more security, it is your responsibility to obtain and use additional forms of
protection, such as data encryption programs.
The System Setup program allows you to install supervisor and user passwords. A
supervisor password is used to access the System Setup program while a user pass-
word is used to access the system, such as when logging in.
Your Dell system is shipped to you without the supervisor password feature installed.
If system security is a concern, you should operate your system only with supervisor
password protection.
You can assign a supervisor password whenever you use the System Setup program.
After a supervisor password is assigned, only those who know the password have full
use of the System Setup program.
