When I press on the "Print screen " key, I get the following message which appears on the screen: "Type the password required to gain access to OSD".<BR />I'm very suprise to see this message because I have never configured a password on this machine.<BR /><BR />- Please how can I remove or reset this password?<BR />- How to get the default password?<BR /><BR />Thank for your cooperation<BR /> Thu, 07 Feb 2008 10:34:27 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/servers-general/reset-kvm-switch-console-password-336044-b21/m-p/4141683#M4278 wali chabi 2008-02-07T10:34:27Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/servers-general/reset-kvm-switch-console-password-336044-b21/m-p/4141684#M4279 Now I can't promise that HP's cocsoles are exactly like Dell's... and we're a Dell shop, but to unlock a console you can use the default password of 00000000 (eight zero's).
