Hi folks.
I am having a small problem with a used PIX 515 firewall I picked up on eBay. It is running version 6.3 (15) of the os. I am probably doing something fundamentally stupid since I haven't had to work with a PIX in about 12-13 years. It has a full unrestricted license, it has 128MB of RAM and has the optional 4 port ethernet card. So the problem is that the seller said he had restored it to factory default and he didn't. There is no PW for the initial logion, but there is an enable password on it which I don't have and he doesn't know. Now I have downloaded the np63.bin password recovery tool, hooked it up to my network using Ethernet port 0, installed and connected with my Terra Term terminal emulator, set up a TFTP server on the machine I console in from, then use the break command to get into monitor mode. Once in there I did a few things on my network. I logged into my router (Linksys 1074), added a static IP reservation on my default NAT network. I set the PIX as 192.168.0.200 in the router. And to avoid issues, I placed it in the DMZ to avoid firewall hassles. Once in monitor mode on the firewall, I used "interface 0", then "gateway 192.168.0.1", then "server 192.168.0.52", then "file 192.168.0.53" which is the IPO of the TFTP server. I pinged both the router and the TFTP server, and all are accessible. Then I did the "TFTP" command. It sits there for a few minutes then gives me the following error.. "TFTP failed <return:-1 arg:0X0>". Like I said, it's been a long time and I'm outy of ideas. Any help would be apporeciated. Oh. I am using the Winagent TFTP server, and I have placed the file in the root directory for the TFTP server. Thanks in advance
