I cant see why.

If IPExpert decide to make a lab programme that utilises dynamips,
then thats great. Regardless of what the IOS licensing agreement
states.

If YOU (yes YOU, the one who clicks "I agree with the licensing Ts&Cs"
when you download IOS) decide to violate the licence agreement then
that is not IPExpert's fault. It is YOURS. If Tyson or Marko or Fred
from IPExpert even help you to troubleshoot your dynamips setup, that
is also not a problem of IPExpert.

The possession of the IOS and how it is obtained is between the holder
of the software and Cisco. No one, despite the amount of publications
written by any third party.

Now to the specific matter at hand. This IOU is Cisco property and I
am sure its licensing says "Cant be used outside of Cisco approved
activities" or words to that effect. If Someone like Marko does not
say, "Hey dont do that please" then that can be implied to condone
similar postings in the future. It would be the same if someone came
along and said, "Hey guys, come to my IOS repository and download all
the stuff you like"

Anyway I've typed enough. It's a Sunday and I really should be out
drinking beer or doing something equally as productive.

Cheers,
Matt
