Im diskless booting an ultra1, most of the time all goes well. 

Every so often though it loads only part of tftpboot image (4200 Hex)
and stops.  I think its server related as I have a second ultra1 that if
I turn on after the first one has stalled does exactly the same thing !

If I leave it all alone and come back in a hour or so it all works.

Anyone know what I have to do to the tftp server to make it reliable.

Ive read several docs, all claim to need a different specific tftp
server. Im also booting pxe intel machines with it so I must not break
that.

Anyone any ideas?
Thanks,
Jon



**Details
This is the version I have installed.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] atftp-0.6]# /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -V
tftp-hpa 0.29, with remap, with tcpwrappers



This is how it starts.
