try this out .
"no service password-recovery " .
When this turned on . And when you do password recovery procedure ( i.e
setting ignore nvram-setting from rommon prompt ) , it will totally destroy
the nvram contents .
This is done to prevent people who have physical access to routers taking
over the router using password recovery procedures !!!!
I think this is the one you are looking for !!!! Pls. let me know if u have
any comments .
Thanks and Regards
Arun
