The command on PIX OS 6.x is:

configure net [[server-ip-address]:[filename]]

thank you for your reply.

I know this, but configure net only merges with the current running configuration.

"The configure net command merges the current running configuration with a TFTP configuration stored at the IP address you specify and from the file you name. If you specify both the IP address and path name in the tftp-server command, you can specify:filename as simply a colon (:)."

A have to enter write mem in order to store it in startup-configuration.

I need to copy a configuration file directly to startup-configuration remotely, because i have to change a pix outside ip address and default gateway. I can't do this with running config as if i change either i will get disconnected.

The ISP will change the IP and DG for the line, so i need to store the new configuration in nvram and ask the user to reboot the pix after the ISP changed the line's parameters.

Is the any solution for this?
