Thank you everyone for all of the suggestions that were given. I got it to
work by going to v2.09 of the distribution. I installed the core, kernel,
X-app, X-fonts, and it pretty much worked out of the box. I noticed that a
great deal of functionality has been added to the distro since v2.08. Xinetd
came up automatically, and the telnetd was part of that. With NIS working, I
am able to telnet into the diskless client. Doing this has provided me with
another problem.
One key reason why I wanted to telnet into the diskless client was so that I
could remotely perform a reboot of the client. First I had to copy the
shutdown command over to the distribution, but once it was over, it didn't
matter what flags I executed. The client does not reboot. I'm not sure it
even shuts down, because it stops at the following line.
INIT: No more processes left in this runlevel.
I'm executing 'shutdown -r now' as root user. Any help you can give me would
be great.
Thanks.
