Hi, just wondering how to set access for a user to view the running-config without being able to change anything? what I have done is: test(config)#privilege exec level 4 show running-config test(config)#username running privilege 4 password running When I login as running everything is fine until I do sh run test#sh run Building configuration... Current configuration: ! ! ! ! end test# OK!, now I also done the same thing but only allowing the startup-config test(config)#privilege exec level 5 show startup-config test(config)#username test privilege 5 password test and show start works?? thanks Paul ___________________________________ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
