Already changed it, but either way, nobody should
ever know your admin pw either, so what's the diff?

tnx, I didn't know that yet.
Is there an extensive FAQ/resource somewhere
on the ssh and/or telnet use of the Qube 3?
(of course it's based on RedHat, so I'll get most from that, but
I wonder about the customized use of commands on Cobalt machines)
I'm always using puTTY from Wintel boxes, I
like it better than using the 'slow' GUI.
