Yeah, seems like an oxy-moron, but this is a legitimate question, I promise. My linksys wireless router requires me to disable the admin password on it to tftp a firmware update to it--however, the Windows tftp client that Linksys ships appear to support some form of "Oh yeah, and here's a password". It probably really doesn't make a difference security-wise, but it would be a lot more convenient to update wireless routers if our tftp client spoke whatever extension they use to carry the password. Does anyone know anything about that protocol extension, or if there are existing tweaks to add it to our tftp? (I saw nothing in the man page). If there's a pointer to the on-the-write bits, I can always stick it in myself, but I have yet to find one.
