Apparently we were having some network issues and kind of pinpointed it to the PIX. Basically we were able to ping everything on our inside After doing a Reset on the PIX , (did cold power shut down first ..no improvement) We got network connectivity to our internet router configured for the outside. However we were unable to log in through telnet or from the console .. I got the password reset utility from Cisco.. which I will do tonight.. Has any one experienced being locked out after doing a reboot or reset on their PIX? it looks like all our holes and configs are ok as we tested it from the outside.. We believe their is a possibility of some type of hacking..
