Try write terminal
or ?
to see what commands are available in that old relic of an IOS version

If that isn't it -- then there may be something in the configuration....

Yah, I'd be curious to see what "sh ?" or "show ?" would do.

try show configuration. UniversCD has 10.3 documentation.

What he said.

Thats the command I use on my 4000m which is running version 9.x of IOS!!

I really need an upgraded IOS for it as it now has an NP-4t so would make a rocking Frame Switch but the IOS version on it does not support Frame Switch commands. Anyone help with this???

GREAT!!!

so this is matter of upgrading memory so that I can up the IOS..

thank you so much!!!
