PBX Master I’m not. OTM Guru I am. Sad I know …
STOP LAUGHING AT ME!!! 
OTM uses PDT for both DBA, and Corporate Directory. Both are stored on the Hard Drive and requires PDT access to obtain. That’s why in the later releases of OTM you’ll see the PDT Password entry in the Systems Properties. As most of you know, back around 2000 the PDT password was published on the Web. So Nortel had to give you or the Distributor the option of changing it from its default value.
As a former member of ETAS I’ll back up the DON’T PLAY WITH PDT stance. The only time I ever used PDT was to install MPLR12780 (Christ I still remember the number of that damn patch!!!), which solved some PTY/PDT MAT/OTM Login issues. As soon as I was done I was out of there.
