    DOS and Encryption

    The new color machines come with these features as standard. I can see the option for DOS easily enough and if I remove the card the feature disappears. But the Encryption, the options are not in User tools>Admin tools, anywhere. I know where to look in other machines. At first I thought, well it is built in. But there has to be a way to retrieve the encryption key. Not to mention encrypt the drive.
    Anybody have any info on this?

    Is encryption not under 'Extended Features' in User Tools? Maybe I'm mistaken.

      Extended features is the vm card. DOS and Encryption comes on one card in slot 1 and should be visible in admin tools.
      The vm card for app2me or the other stuff comes in a package not installed. and I always keep the card, the manual disk and exchange the Extended Features Button for a blank one. If anyone ever asks Ill install it but until then I dont wanna get into it.

              I believe you have to be logged in as the administrator to be able to see the encryption option in user tools.

                  The supervisor pw and admin un and passwords have to be changed from the default in order to set up encryption. Not so with DOS. Thanks for the bulletins.
