Hit it right on the head Kevin.

 I follow this group because people on it are asking/doing things that my
current situation doesn't expose me to. Just because I have those letters
after my name does not mean I'm the purveyor of all things Cisco, or
otherwise for that matter.

 I had some time at work Friday afternoon ( it was dead before the holiday
weekend) where a 2610 router I was going to configure for a remote site was
not needed until later next week. I figured I'd play with it a little and
try to do something I knew nothing about.... xmodem. I had seen it talked
about here and had looked on CCO for information about it and it was always
in the context of downloading an image. I was wondering if I could upload
it, and having never used xmodem I figured I'd ask.

I'll take my lumps on the tftp attempt. About five minutes after I tried it
I was kicking myself for being that dumb. Wasn't the first time I've done
something like that and I'm sure it won't be the last.

As I promised myself I'd not play with any routers at home this weekend and
instead play some golf  I haven't been able to try the advice given by EJAY,
but I'll give it a shot on Tuesday. Thanks all.

Jim
