That about sums it up.

The Netware console has only very basic password/user control - you _can_
lock the console with a password - but CNE's and the like have been shown
a method to bypass this lock - and there's NO username or ID associated
with the password - which means anyone who finds it out can use the
console.

Accordingly, what you can _DO_ with the console is limited. You can still
do enough to destroy the server - but you can't hack into secret
databases, or open user files etc.
