Re: [FW1] FT1 and Compaq Servers





You can establish sessions to the management utilities only when the
management utilities are running. Which is either when the machine has been
administratively rebooted into them, or when manually rebooted and somebody
hit F10. Additionally, you'd need the proper settings on the machine itself
in the System Configuration Utility (IP address, netmask, gateway).

If you're concerned with the possibility of somebody gaining access, simply
disable the network interface for remote management. It would be foolish to
blow away the entire partition -- you'd lose a lot of functionality that
you may need in the future.

Tip:

           Get rid of the "stock" management partition on Compaq servers
running FW1. You can establish sessions to the management utils on it.
