Date: Sat, 30 Jan 1999 19:32:20 -0500 (EST) From: Derrick J Brashear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Subject: tftpd modifications for easier sparc downloads I did a minor patch for tftpd which creates the ability to read a file /etc/tftpd.conf, structured thusly: *.SUN4C ultra.img *.SUN4M inetboot.SUN4M 93485B83* inetboot.SUN4 * inetboot.SUN4U Note that some proms ask for /tftpboot/HEXIP.ARCH You can find this patch at ftp://ftp.dementia.org/pub/linux/sparc/tftpd.diff This effectively means you need only maintain /etc/ethers to download a sparclinux machine, not create a symlink for each host. (however, you have to use arp and rarp by hand still... but I have a rarpd which I'll have ready for release in a few days) -D - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of the message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- End forwarded message ----- -- ----- -- - -------- --------- ---- ------- ----- - - --- -------- Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
