NOTES
If a user does not have administrator privileges, then they will see functions [F5], [F6], and [F7] displayed in red in the Help Menu, indicating that these functions aren’t available to them.
If a system administrator has set Display All Computers to “No,” then [F10] will be displayed in red in the Help Menu for all users, indicating that this function is not available (even for administrators).
We recommend that you use a Sun keyboard if there are any Sun CPUs in your system; if you must control Sun CPUs with a PS/2 keyboard, see Appendix H for how to produce a Sun keyboard’s special characters.
