RE: Setting up TCPIP on new i5

["Evan Harris" <spanner@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think you'll find the SST password reset only resets the QSECOFR one.

The other password is the SST DEVICE password that's associated with the LAN
console device you are connecting to. You can have more than one - you are
probably set up to use QCONSOLE so you need to reset the device password.

The device password gets reset using the 65+21 functions - you can also
reset the LAN Console interface/line, which might help.
