They're no longer linked on their website but you can log in via FTP to
ftp-sj.cisco.com using your CCO user/pwd. Most of their old IOS and PIX
images are archived there. I've tracked down some 5.1(X) files for the
handful of 2MB cards that I've built FrankenPIXes out of for my lab.
Still, I am puzzled as to why a company could have a PIX for so long
and not know about fundamental commands such as 'alias'. It suggests
to me that perhaps the equipment was obtained used (perhaps free)
by someone who did not know what they were getting in to?
Unfortunately, there are a pile of these selling on eBay along with old
Nokia/Checkpoint and Juniper NetScreen boxes. Some of it's commodity
hardware that can easily be upgraded to something more useful but the
majority have some component with a closed architecture and support from
the original vendor has been end of lifed for several years.
