However if the SUPERVISOR account is locked out the Console Command ENABLE LOGINS will will reset the SUPERVISOR account. This will only affect the SUPERVISOR account and no others. WARNING if you are using the Console Lock feature of the MONITOR.NLM any failed attempt at the password will be taken as an attempt at the SUPERVISOR password. It is recommended that the SUPERVISOR password is not used for the Console Lock password because if the SUPERVISOR account is locked you are stuck. Hope THAT helps...
