Jorge,

What are you typing to get this error message? You didn't give us much to go on :)

Hi j.blakley

this that i typing :

wr net jorgef:63.txt

Building configuration...

TFTP write '63.txt' at jorgef on interface 1

tftp: out of states

Can't open tftp client

[FAILED]

Usage: write erase|floppy|mem|terminal|standby

write net []:

thanks

Jorge,

You need to specify the ip address of your tftp server. If you're running a tftp server on your laptop, for instance, and your laptop's ip address is 192.168.1.50, then your command would be:

wr net 192.168.1.50:63.txt

If you don't have a tftp server, I recommend tftpd32.

Hmmm....try this (forgive the syntax if incorrect)

PIX(config)# tftp-server inside 192.168.1.1 63.txt

PIX# wr net

HTH, John *** Please rate all useful posts ***

(config)# tftp-server spcbr 10.198.10.16 63.txt

(config)# wr net

Building configuration...

TFTP write '63.txt' at 10.198.10.16 on interface 0

tftp: could not open udp/0/12345/10.198.10.16/69

Can't open tftp client

write net []:

Jorge,

In one post you wrote:

Building configuration...

TFTP write '63.txt' at jorgef on interface 1

tftp: out of states

Can't open tftp client

[FAILED]

And in the last one:

TFTP write '63.txt' at 10.198.10.16 on interface 0

Is your tftp server on the outside of the pix or the inside of the pix? Do you have an acl on the interface that you're going out on?

HTH, John *** Please rate all useful posts ***

outside the pix

thanks a lot

If you have an acl, try adding a permit statement for udp/69.

"Currently writing image. Cannot reload"

Thanks a lot

Jorge
