Why server rooms are locked restricted areas (or should be). However,
you can take a number of precautions to at least force a console
attacker to have to open your box to reset the bios (remove battery for
20+ minutes, jumper the bios reset pins if equiped).
The correct answer, though, is not to leave a logged in system. Then
you don't have to worry about it.
