Challenge/Response Option
=========================
The external unlock /CR option generates a Challenge for
which you must contact your site administrator, Distributor,
or MERGENT to obtain a Response. The Challenge sequence
verifies that only an authorized user is accessing the Boot
Protection external unlock Utilities. When you supply a
valid Challenge to the site administrator, Distributor, or
MERGENT Technical Support Department, and supply proof that
you are authorized to access the utilities, a valid Response
to "solve" the Challenge will be given to you.
What's a Challenge?
===================
The challenge is a series of 15 numbers (three sets of five
numbers each). The numbers that appear are based on each
PC's real-time clock. Because of this, no two challenge
sequences are the same. Each challenge has only one
possible response.
What's a Response?
==================
A Response is a series of ten numbers (two sets of five
numbers each). The numbers that appear are based on the
challenge and the BP Key. The response is the "solution" to
the challenge.
Site vs. Distributor vs. MERGENT
================================
Screen text will contain instructions explaining the party
to contact. Of the three types of challenge, only those
supported will be displayed (in the order shown). If the
site administrator cannot be located, an F3 keypress at the
site challenge will display the Distributor challenge.
Similarly, assuming all three challenge options are
supported, an F3 keypress at the Distributor challenge will
display the MERGENT challenge.
Obtaining a Response
====================
Contact the person or entity described in the screen text.
Read your Challenge as three sets of five numbers each. As
each digit of the ten digit Response is issued, type it in
the Response Field on-screen. Make sure you enter the
numbers correctly.
Keys to Press
Press F3 to cancel the current screen and to display the
next supported challenge option.
Press F10 to accept the Response you receive.
