[Dev] Cisco Pix adaptor failed to retrieve configuration because of TACACS+ server.

Hi PingShan Li,

Can you just login to the device directly with your "james" account?  That would require no adapter modification.

It seems as though you've setup TACACS+ to deny the "enable" command for the "testUser" so you just login with your "james" account that gets you right to priv 15 (enable) mode.   Please correct me if I'm wrong.

-Ryan

Cisco Pix adaptor failed to retrieve configuration because of TACACS+ server.

The pix device is configured to use TACACS+ server, when the user types enable command, "Command authorization failed" is replied. The attched file handles this situation, but it can be improved to try to send enable command first, then try to send login command if enable failed.

Please review the changes.

Thanks

PingShan Li
