Armed with this bit of info about S1 and software for the 200, I
finally pulled my DECserver 200/MC out of storage and powered it up.
I tried a bunch of different combinations of port 1 vs. 8 and holding
down S1 for varying lengths of time, but it still wants some password
when I do SET PRIVILEGED:

DECserver 200 Terminal Server V3.1 (BL37) - LAT V5.1

Please type HELP if you need assistance

Local -020- Logged out port 8 on server LAT_08002B0ABB40

Does anyone have any ideas?  The only other messages of note are these
on port 1 when it's powering up, but they're not really interesting:

Local -901- Initializing DECserver "08-00-2B-0A-BB-40" -- ROM BL20, H/W Rev D.A
Local -902- Waiting for image load
Local -903- Loading from host "00-E0-98-76-E2-B1"
Local -904- Image load complete

Thanks,

Matt
