Really easy to do. It's all on Cisco's site. You basically force the router to boot without loading the config, then you copy the config from start to run and then config t and change the password. oh and do a no shutdown on all the ports. This will bring everything up like it was before with the new password. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps233/products_password_recovery09186a0080094795.shtml Later, Andrew --- http://www.andrewsworld.net/ ICQ: 2895251 Cisco Certified Network Associate "Learn from the mistakes of others.
