As you know that involves posting passwords which I will not do on here.

And you give out passwords via email to whomever? I generally refer people to the proper channels to obtain the passwords legitimately.

He already knew them However, If you can give me the phone number for GDC in Russia I would be happy to do so. Except that they don't have one.

While of course I respect Brad's policy and will not post any passwords on this site, in answering private email (or other) queries, my approach is that if the password can easily be found online (for example, the Dolby DSS200 installation manual PDF can be downloaded from several different places that a Google search will reveal, and it contains all the default passwords that the unit ships from the factory with), I am willing to provide it, albeit with a "do this at your own risk" waiver if the password in question enables someone with inadequate knowledge of what they are trying to do to cause accidental damage.

If, however, it's a password that I am not totally sure is in the public domain already, I'm not willing to give it to anyone I don't know and trust.

Mark - you are still in the wrong here. Post the instructions and leave spaces for passwords. For example: "flip this over then screw that in and power on. Enter the Admin password credentials and from that screen..."

That's not giving away passwords, but also doesn't turn this into yet another internet "waste of time" reads for someone scouring the internet for some assistance. The purpose is to provide helpful information to those reading.
