Ok, so either your file is broken or the present working directory of
tcpborphserver3 is not correct. You can see the current working directory
by:
cd /proc/PID
ls -la
cwd will be a link to the current working directory.
In the telnet session run ?chdir /usr/bof
Then try again. If this does not work try md5sum on your boffile and
compare it to the original.
Alec,
