I'm trying to troubleshoot tftpd(8). % grep boot /etc/inetd.conf tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -dd -l -s /tftpboot tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -dd -l -s /tftpboot bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/bootpd bootpd -d4 -t0 /etc/bootptab %
I'm trying to boot another node via bootp/tftp. I'm monitoring what's going on with tcpdump -vv. bootpd starts fine, and seems to read /etc/bootptab correctly. But after that nothing happens, and after a few minutes I get on the console of the host which I want to boot: > bootp()/bsd.rd.IP32 Unable to execute bootp()/bsd.rd.IP32: invalid argument > Does this tcpdump fragment help to understand where the problem is: 192.168.232.10.15388 > buzi.tftp: [no cksum] 25 RRQ "/bsd.rd.IP32" octet ( o 23:25:21.024160 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 56, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (1 7), length 30, bad cksum 0 (->293a)!) buzi.19330 > 192.168.232.10.15388: [udp sum ok] UDP, length 2 23:25:51.013759 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 256, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 53) I'm happy to provide more detailed information on the settings I use and a longer tcpdump output, if this helps.
