Feeling a bit dumb; the default password for the 4 digit field to change
toolbox settings turns out to be.....

Nothing. A completely empty field.

The important thing is that you've got it sorted.

If it helps your feelings, I made much the same mistake a few years back
with a router...

That was the idea!

There's stuff in the Dell "Community" forums but the search tool is
peculiar. I *think* if you just give it a list of search words it drops
links for any of them. It sort of works better if you separate search words
with "AND" (e.g. "1320c AND password"). Also, it won't find 1320c if you
just enter 1320. But extending these principles doesn't give the expected
results, so whatever the rules are, the syntax isn't obvious. I couldn't
find it posted anywhere.

The Dell community forumns used to have a very good search facility and
board organisation, which could be easily navigated down to individual
model ranges and relevant discussions. For some reason, Dell saw fit to
break it :-(

Interesting. Too many home truths appearing, perhaps? Business now large
enough that it needs a lot of middle managers, some of whom lose the plot?
