Passwords are best not given out at all on a public forum. Hope some 15 year old kid looking at this forum dosn't gets the idea to screw around with the system that his mother uses when he visits the office next time. I hope it's not one of mine that I maintain since you just gave him the idea and the tools (our tools).</font>
I agree completely that configuration passwords should not be given out in public forums. Fortunately, any malicious soul armed with this password will not have access to any system configuration that could cause real damage.
This forum is here to help people. I can only hope that my post did just that.
Any 15 year old that can spell g-o-o-g-l-e can get this password in a matter of a few seconds. Here is a short list of some other publicly available sites, that bear the same information that I let out of the bag:
https://www.businessphonesdirect.com/article_info.php/articles_id/44 https://www.cintechllc.com/Support/support_findProductID.htm https://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=322990 https://www.candcenterprises.ca/Norstar_feature_codes.html https://www.weunderstandtechnology.com/Features.htm https://tek-tips.com/faqs.cfm?fid=1898 Note that the second one is actually a public site that belongs to Cintech.
If I gave anyone an "idea", it was only regarding the appropriate way to reboot a NAM. Hopefully, the visiting adolescent won't just pull the plug. :-)
Thanks for reading my rant.
