I know. Took me last year 10secs to figure out because I am not alone.

Google:  "How to recover the password on a 3Com 4924"

While the "3Com Update Utility" can connect to the Switch I am puzzeling
arround, why I can not connect with "minicom".  Have  not  used  minicom
for the last 3 or 4 years and can not more remembe how I have done this.
