9300 switch output of show config while in user mode is blank

[cybrsage]

I have always been able to do a show config from user mode on all other switches, after setting the exec level for the command to 0.  On the 9300, it gives me an empty output but works while in enable mode.

Any idea why this is not working?  I am currently using it on a 4500 switch, as well as a ton of 2xxx and 3xxx switches.

You get the same output when you use "sh run"?

sh run does not work from the user prompt, so I get an error.  It does not appear in the show ? listing either.

It appears that command is only available from the privilege mode.

This example shows how to enter the show configuration privileged EXEC command in an abbreviated form: Device# show conf

Thank you, that is what I thought as well, but was hoping to be just missing something simple. :)

Yes, I also tried it on a 9300 and it is not an option

c9300>sh c?
cache call call-home capability
cca class-map clock cns
compress controllers crypto

c9300>sh c

Good Luck!
