    do you have physical access to the box? if so, then serial cable, if not you might be in trouble. Matt

    after you' re connected by serial. config sys admin edit <admin name> set trusthost1 <ipsubnet>/<subnetmask> end note you can use trusthost1, trusthost2 or trusthost3. Cheers Matt

    In the future, have access to a second account (support, etc) so that you can avoid the serial route.... Works for me.

    thanks guys... The issue was fixed... I had my corp office as one of the trusted hosts...so as soon I went to work, i was able to access the branch firewall.. Taught me a lesson not to mess with the trusted hosts settings!!!
