ATTENTION

While attending to tasks on various Windows NT systems, 
I have noticed that some of the Local Administrative Passwords 
have been changed.

It is imperative that a sealed copy of the Local Administrative 
Passwords be maintained by NPAC, so that in an emergency
access to any one system can be made.

I understand that your work is to be guarded, however these
systems are the property on NPAC and will be maintained in a 
proper order.

This procedure applies to all workstations & laptop systems both 
at NPAC and at your home!

Here is the procedure that needs to be complied with:

Write your Local NT Administrator Password on a piece of
	paper, place it in an envelope.
Seal the envelope
On the outside of this envelope
Write the system name
Write the IP address
Write the Room Location and/or Cubicle Number
Give this Sealed envelope to Neil Jasper in 3-217
The envelope will remain sealed, unless an emergency forces the password to be used.
If the seal is broken, you will be asked to recreate the above process.

If your Local Administrative Password is NOT on file, Your system 
WILL be formatted to gain access!

Please provide the above information NO LATER than Friday, August 20th.
