[c-nsp] Cisco 7200 router with AAA problem and nvram corruption

[root net]

Right. I have a backup of config on the flash cards in the system. Anytime a
change is made it's copied to both flash cards and tftp to the server. The
only issue tftp is manual though and sometimes doesn't get done. RANCID from
now on. Haven't had time to setup but now it's a must.
