I have configured the enable and secrets passwords on my 2507 router running IOS 12.0, when I go back to user mode and enter the enable command I do not get prompted for a password. It takes me staraight to enable mode, also when I telnet to the router and try to acces enable mode Ican't it says no pass word is configured. Will appreciate any ideas.

For the telnet, you need to configure the following,
line vty 0 4
login
Regarding the first issue, Did you check in the running configuration (sh run) whether the enable and secret password commands were properly entered ( dont know if there was any mistake while typing)

I made no mistakes when typing the passwords, thing is when I do a show run I can't see the configured passwords except for vty access. I'm wondreing if its a bug issue I have tried several times. Thanks.

When you are placed in enable mode are you connected on the console ? If you are your console sessions is still active . what you need to do is do a disc or an exit on the console session , then try to login.
When you are getting password required but none set this means no vty password is set .
line vty 0 4
password cisco
this will set the PW to Cisco

I do have VTY access configured and I can telnet to the router fine, problem is when I try to access enable mode (after typing in the telnet password), it says none is set and I know I have one configured.
