Just signed up to this list so forgive me if this has been said already. On your Cisco I dont see where you have created a username and password. It should look like this:
Example: username test password cisco The username is typically the hostname of the router you want to connect to. So the remote router will have your routers name as the username. Of course the password needs to be the same on both sides. Give that a try and let me know. Thanks, Mario Puras SoluNet Technical Support -----Original Message----- From: Arni V.
