debian does the same. mkbootserver defaults to /tftpboot, though /var/lib/tftp is a better place, FHS wise. /tftpboot was chosen because that's what most people are used to - its the default, but the user can choose something else. i wouldn't mind if it defaulted to /var/lib/tftp - assuming redhat has that directory too. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN developer relations Here's your chance to show off your extensive product knowledge We want to know what you know.
