Super User Password Request

Top  Previous  Next

By default all items under Expert are super user password protected.

 

Super user password request dialog:

 

superuserpwd001

 

This feature is implemented to restrict access to items which affects the whole system, (e.g. Software updates) or important features (e.g. ISDN services). The user should be aware that when changing any of these settings he/she may affect rather more than just simple things!

 

The following should be considered in relation to the SuperUser password:

The password is ‘set’ the first time it is caused to appear. When your codec is delivered, the SuperUser password is blank. The Installation engineer should set the Super user password at the end of his/her system checks.
Should the password become lost or forgotten, it can be retrieved from the Windows registry at <HKEY_CURRENT_User\Software\Mayah Communications\codec_name_arial12bold_001 Remote> under the item SuperUserPassword.
The super user password request can be disabled through Expert/Options at item Enable Super User Password Dialog.
