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

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

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!!!
