The NetWare RCONSOLE password is stored as plain text on the load line
of the RCONSOLE NLM. Anyone with access to the server can load the
startup (text) files to find it. If the server console is locked, you
just have to reboot the server, crash to DOS and read it from there in
the NWSERVER directory.
This is a great reason to NOT use RCONSOLE, or to password protect your
server console, and to create an RCONSOLE user with limited ability.
DONT EVER USE THE Admin PASSWORD FOR RCONSOLE!!!

Dave.
