PIX TFTP Server

Hi,

I have a problem regarding writing PIX firewall configuration file to a tftp server.
My configuration is below:

1. TFTP server is configured on a PC on a switch connected to the inside interface
    of the firewall. It's IP address is 172.16.1.10

2. I configure "tftp-server 172.16.1.10 C:\TFTP-Root" on my PIX. I have C:\TFTP-Root
   on the PC. That's is the default directory for TFTP.

3. I can ping my TFTP server(172.16.1.10) from my PIX.

Note, I could copy running to tfp from the L3 module of my switch successfully.

However, when I try to do "write net :pix" on the PIX, I got the following message:

TFTP write 'C:\TFTP-Root/pix' at 172.18.1.10 on interface 1
TFTP Server Error: Invalid access to C:\TFTP-Root/pix

Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks.
