I few off-the-top-of-my-head ideas that may or may not work;

1. You could try and pipe the output from "show configuration commit
list" to get the commit ID from the last change, using the unix
utilities and awk/pgre/xargs the commit ID into the TFTP url

2. You coul try and run a perl script;

3. Pull fromthe box rather than push

4. Upgrade from IOS-XR 4.3.1 before the Sun explodes!

5.In XR 6.1 Linux containers are coming and the support for 3rd party
Linux tools (bash, python etc) so you can run more than "just simple
Perl scripts" (I don't think many Perl modules are present in IOS-XR
4.3.!).


Cheers,
James.
