Troubles with command "configure replace"

Hi.

I have some trouble with configure replace command. At first i configured archive on my router:

"archive

path ftp://192.168.40.3/router-config

write-memory"

Command show archive gave this output:

"The next archive file will be named flash:router-config-6

Archive #  Name

   0       

   1       flash:router-config-1

   2       flash:router-config-2

   3       flash:router-config-3

   4       flash:router-config-4

   5       flash:router-config-5 <- Most Recent "

Then i made some changes to the running-configuration and want to revent to the configuration that existed before the changes were made.

I was entered configure replace flash:router-config-5 list time 10 command and then i wasn't enter configure confirm comand, but after 10 seconds configuration wasn't revented. Where my mistake, show me please...

What commands are you rolling back exactly?  The "time" argument specifies a time to wait in minutes, not seconds.

In cisco guide said:

The time seconds keyword and argument specify the time (in seconds) within which you must enter the configure confirm command to confirm replacement of the current running configuration file. If the configure confirm command is not entered within the specified time limit, the configuration replace operation is automatically reversed (in other words, the current running configuration file is restored to the configuration state that existed prior to entering the configure replace command).

The syntax for this command changed.  Run "config replace FILE time ?".  You should see that the time is now in minutes.  See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/fundamentals/configuration/guide/cf_config-rollback_ps6350_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html#wp1146581 for more details.
