Problem with write net :cldbcogw1.cfg from PIX 506E 6.3(5)

clsysadmin — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 08:48:27 GMT

New user of Cisco gear and this is my first question submitted here so please bear with me ...

Have a new PIX 506E with 6.3(5)

Have a Solaris system for a tftp server

Have the tftp-server configured on PIX as:

tftp-server inside clmco2223 /tftpboot

I have a name statement in the PIX config:

name 192.168.222.3 clmco2223

Permissions for /tftpboot on Solaris system are 777

Permissions for cldbcogw1.cfg file on Solaris system are 777

netadmin@clmco2223-$ cd /tftpboot

netadmin@clmco2223-$ ls -la

total 6

drwxrwxrwx 3 nobody other 512 Mar 29 06:59 .

drwxr-xr-x 35 root root 1024 Mar 29 06:47 ..

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root other 0 Mar 29 06:59 cldbcogw1.cfg

When I attempt to execute the write net command, here's what I get ...

cldbclgw1(config)# write net :cldbcogw1.cfg

Building configuration...

TFTP write '/tftpboot/cldbcogw1.cfg' at clmco2223 on interface 1

Access violation

[FAILED]

If I manually tftp from another system to this one (clmco2223), the transfer works fine.

Does anybody have any insight?

Thanks,

Roy

Looks like the TFTP Server allows just to write in existing local files.

Create a file with the name < cldbcogw1.cfg > in the Solrais TFTP Server directory.

cd ../Folder of TFTP Server/

touch cldbcogw1.cfg

And then try again to write the file.

Hope that helps

Patrick

Appreciate the reply ...

I'd already done what you had suggested.

" Permissions for /tftpboot on Solaris system are 777

Permissions for cldbcogw1.cfg file on Solaris system are 777

netadmin@clmco2223-$ cd /tftpboot

netadmin@clmco2223-$ ls -la

total 6

drwxrwxrwx 3 nobody other 512 Mar 29 06:59 .

drwxr-xr-x 35 root root 1024 Mar 29 06:47 ..

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root other 0 Mar 29 06:59 cldbcogw1.cfg "

Any other suggestions?

Hmm I allready had the same problem with a secure tftp server but I do not remember what exactly I had done. I think you need 777 on an allready created file. Use also the < /filename >.

Add this line into your PIX:

tftp-server interface-name TFTPServerIP /filename

Then execute:

wr net
