        Before I moved, and put mine away, I was about to re-flash the
firmware, which clears all the asswords and settings. I'll try to dig up the
info and files for doing that. Then I'll find a place on the net to put
them, so other can download them.
        Note: you need a Mac with a serial port, and the console cable that
came with them. I'll slap a meter on my console cable for the pinout, and
post that too. :) IIRC, you should be able to just hook up a VT420 to the
port after that, for twiddling the knobs.
