Hello. I recently purchased an old Pix LocalDirector from eBay. As one would expect, it came with no documentation or configuration notes but for $20.00, it was hard to resist. The seller didn't know if it even worked. I thought I'd take a chance and to my suprise, the little old Pix fired right up and ran. Unfortunately, the last user failed to clear the enable password, so I can't get into it to reconfigure it for use in my little home network. I registered myself here on the Cisco web site in hopes I could download the unlock key file but the web site said I had to purchase a service agreement from Cisco before I coul;d get this file. Well, I know from myt professional IT past that I couild never afford one of those agreements for myself and considering this is a well-beyond end-of-life product, I doubt they would sell me one anyhow. So, can anyone tell me if there's a way to clear the password in the hardware? Is there peradventure someone at Cisco who might turn loose of of a key file to this old thing? As I mentioned, it's a Pix LocalDirector running software version 4.2(4), according to the "show version" command. The serial number is: 18003122. Could someone out there help me with this? Thank-you. Mike.
