Garibaldi's password is "peekaboo"; I use a mutation of that for some
stuff (come to think of it, I should probably pick a new password at
some point).

Sheridan - Obsidian
Ivanova - Griffon
Garibaldi - peekaboo
From Ceremonies of Light and Dark, where they reset all passwords and reboot
the computer system.
In my (limited) defense, I watched the episode just a few days ago. 2 of my
friends bought me B5 DVDs for birthday/christmas

I guessed it would be probably be you to get them all. Have an imaginary
cookie; hell take three, one for each correct answer.

"Peek-a-boo?"
"Well would you have guessed it?"
As Gail's already mentioned from Ceremonies of Light and Dark where they
perform every IT manager's dream task of turning everything off, rebooting
from scratch, and crossing their fingers in the hopes everything comes
back on.

And in the process wake up the buried AI sub-system.
Moral of the story: Don't mess with the servers. They can ruin the rest of
your week, and they know it.

FWIW, it's known that this simply would not work for the phone system,
at least as implemented in the USA. A new phone switch coming up looks
to its peers for configuration, and there's no way to put configuration
into it otherwise at this point.

It's not feature creep if you put it
at the end and adjust the release date.

Wow. So what would happen on a power outage along with total failure of
their backups? (not data backups; I mean UPSs and stuff)

What, of the entire country? For several weeks? I think you'd have more
problems than rebooting the phones when you came back.
(Some phone systems have UPSes literally the size of small buildings.)
