We unpacked two new systems today and found they had no OS at all not even 4.0 base load.
We had to do the boot P load thing.

Is this just the way the shipped now or did we get two duds in a row?

[cheers]

They are shipped now with no OS, this seems to be normal.
I am fairly sure therewas a tech tip / bulletin about it, but cannot find it.
However, there is enough brains in the box to connect with manager and do a simple upgrade, without the need to DTE to the loader

IP500 are shipped with 4.0.0, non operational software, just a basic boot l,oader which allows you to do an upgrade.

IP500 has ALWAYS been this way.
 
Is that the new name for an old face??

Jamie, there are always ways around that, my favourite is to "LogMeIn" onto a customers VM server and use that in fullscreen mode, then watch your IT Manager try to figure out how you are getting around his handywork :)

i get barred for posting info on how to reveal a password in a config, or even ask HOW to reset a password in the new version of contact store as the old method no longer works....
 
asking should not do that, you can always ask according to my wife :)

and the thread about the security password got removed even though it is on the knowledgebase website so it is publicly available information
