Mike,
A quick question on this if I can. This is the way I have my system set up, using the WELCOME option, which does not require a password. However, when I first installed the system, I did assign a password (pretty sure) to the Administrator account that was built on Original Administrator Account that first comes up. If I "uncheck" the Welcome option, it should go back to that account, is that correct? The only reason I hesitate is that while quite sure the password I wrote down is that correct one, I don't want to leave myself without an option to get back to the Welcome account, which does not have a password assigned....
