The ability to connect to the router and push a software change? Let's
think this through a bit, shall we? ;)<< Who said push? I said cisco's whole patch method is to move people to a new version of IOS instead of patching the old version. Cisco charges for new versions so it's not in their financial interest to make new versions available for free like the patches need to be. So I suggest they employ a different patch method, you download an exe from their ftp site, it takes your current build which is stored on your computer, patches it, and uploads it to your router or you then upload it to your router. Since this would require you already have the image they could continue to manage their image distributions as they do now. I mean your issue is not impossible to work around.

Now, what were you saying about a few worms causing *ANY* change in
behavior? ;) it's amazing how safe software can be when used by a professional, isn't it? Everyone here knows you have a woodie for OE by the format of your posts which appear as attachments instead of normal text in OE. I notice that behavior hasn't changed either <g>. Nuff said? Geo.
