TFTP authentication (trying to upgrade Linksys router firmware)

[Andreas Kahari <ak@freeshell.org>]

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade the firmware on my Linksys
router (BEFSR41) but the javascript/HTML on the
http://192.168.1.1/Upgrade.htm page is crappy and won't "do"
anything (using Mozilla-firebird, Opera, links, and lynx).

I tried to tftp to the router and "put" the file, but of course
it replies with

    Error code 2: Invalid Password !!

... and the tftp client in OpenBSD doesn't support
authentication.

Has anyone else had any luck in upgrading their Linksys firmware
from their OpenBSD system?  Can anyone suggest another way of,
or tool for, doing it?
