The 2501 appears to be working OK, just keeps giving me these
messages
every 15 minutes...

Well, it is off topic, but... your 2501 is trying to pull config files
from a server via tftp or rcp. Put "no service config" in your config.
Service config is useful for deploying a cisco to a remote site, then
pulling a basic config for basic connectivity, say from a cisco on the
other side of the serial link or whatever. I don't think the default is
for this to be on, but believe this happens from when a cisco isn't
initialized/setup properly when first powered on.
