/etc/xinetd.d/tftp
should contain something similar to this text:
# default: off
# description: The tftp server serves files using the
trivial file transfer \
# protocol. The tftp protocol is often used to boot
diskless \
# workstations, download configuration files to
network-aware printers, \
# and to start the installation process for some
operating systems.
service tftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /tftpboot
}
But I dont understand, why on Mandrake 9 it had this
server_args = -s /var/tftpboot
So remember, this
server_args = -s /tftpboot
is the correct one! 8)
and consecuently, in dhcpd.con, you will use something
similar to:
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5";
and the servers real directory is like this:
/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-5
