On the front panel of a Cisco 2950 is a button which can be used to reset the switch to factory defaults, when held down for a few seconds.
Does anyone know of a way to disable this within IOS?
Many thanks!

You can disable this feature using:
no setup express
To quote Cisco:
The primary purpose of the
no setup express
command is to prevent someone from deleting the switch configuration by pressing the Mode button for 10 seconds.
