If memory serves, you have to go into the tftpd-hpa config file (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa?) and uncomment the line about it running as a daemon, i.e., you want it to run as a daemon. Start it manually then or reboot. netstat to make sure that your server is listening on both ports 69 (UDP?) and 2000 (inetd). I think I wrote up some more specific instructions on the list around July or so if you want more details. db ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
