Re: Unable to Write-Memory in 4006 Cat OS

At your service. I still have one of these guys in production until my
order gets here... Hehehehe....

I don't recall a way to TFTP manually but it seems to me that I have backups
4500 (wait Sup IV - IOS)... no coparison.

Different family - unless someone else knows differently. I still own a
small fleet of the 4006's with CatOS.
