| Few things,
You say ftp server, yet you are trying to copy via tftp. Copying ios loads via tftp isnt usually a good idea, so be sure you do it via FTP.
Its saying it cant find that file in your flash. Do a ,
dir flash:/
and make sure the filename shows up exactly how you are typing it in. |

Also, you'd need to be running a TFTP server, not an FTP server. Different protocol, different port. |

When backing up from flash to tftp, I make it a habit of doing a
'show flash' first to know what files are in flash and the specific
filename is of the IOS code.
Otherwise, the 2800-series is all CF-based so worst-case scenario
get a CF memory card reader to back things up.

| I did a show version and found the original *.bin. How can I copy this file first to my tftp server. I trying to avoid copy tftp flash because this prompts you to overwrite the original *.bin and then copy to a tftp server. So I think copy the original file first to a tftp server would be the first thing forr me to do since I donot have a copy. What would be the command to just copy ??? Thankjs |

Should get it. |

copy flash:[filename here.bin] tftp
Otherwise, go with the CF reader option to have WIMP-convenience of drag-n-drop.
