Hi Neil,
PIX has a TFTP feature (as of version 4.1).
I found one bug in our database that was not reproducible and was assumed
to be pilot error. In our testing, comment lines are fine from the
configuration file on TFTP server - the PIX ignores them
quietly. However, I suspect that incorrect comment line characters were
used, and may have caused problems. Someone familiar with IOS would tend
to use the IOS character (!) which the PIX would complain about.
Thanks much,
Lisa Napier
