Last night I saw a release note from the 2.4.2 version of the OS and it said
it fixed a flaw in 2.4.1 (which I have) where the SNMP agent would send
zeroes for several OIDs.  Ok, so that's my problem and I've downloaded
version 2.4.2.  I don't have a means of connecting a serial cable and
upgrading through the management port.  Anyone have any hints on how to do
it through TFTP?

I know TFTP is insecure so I wouldn't run it long, but do I do the
following...

Turn on a TFTP server on a linux box that has the version image
Login to the cisco modem through telnet and run TFTP pointing at my linux
box.

Is that all I need to do?
