PIX password recovery

Hi all,

I'm trying to do some passwrd recovery on a 501 of mine. I'm following the instructions here: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/110/34.shtml

I'm running Pumpkin as my TFTP server.

IP connectivity seems ok- PIX can ping tftp server, although tftp server cant ping PIX- I'm assuming because the PIX is firewalling at this point?

Anyway- Pumpkin sees the request for a file, both parties seem to want to do the business, then the PIX says:

TFTP failed (return:-10 arg: 0x1)

Pumpkin seems to think the PIX is looking for an octec transfer, and my default block size is 1024 bytes. Anyone have any ideas?

TIA-

FWIW, I fixed this myself.

It seems that changing to a different TFTP client did the trick. I was using Pumpkin, which gave me a problem, and when I switched to the free Solarwinds version it all came good.
