What does 'out of the box' really mean
An out of the box install works! I've played with 1/2 dozen hardy installs.
EG I use xinetd so I had to enable tftp:
[eeyore] /home/jam [56]% cat /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
# 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 /var/lib/tftpboot
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
a) use wireshark to see whats happening
b) then ask about what-is-going-wrong
wireshark is really now days
