Was actually looking at the IOS software when I received this. Here is the
version information. This version of IOS was provided by cisco on a replacement
set of memory chips(bad memory when this unit was shipped to us). Telco check
is next... lord knows they are not the most together set of individuals up
here.

It was however the tracebacks that raised a flag with me and started my on the
IOS route... Any newer software versions that are more stable and should be
upgraded to?

Here is the sh ver output
