Well, this seems like an easy question. I am trying to set up a bootp server for a diskless to boot. However, I can't receive any bootp request. I have included all the kernel feature needed (like multicast)...added the 255.255.255.255 route (Not sure if needed on 2.4 kernel)...
I roughly remember that I have to echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/something but nothing in 2.4 /proc/sys/net/ipv4 looks interesting as far as bootp goes...Does anyone have any idea on bootp on kernel 2.4? I tried dhcp..but for some reason, dhcpd would seg. fault on my machine, whether I use the debian package, or compile myown. After the seg. fault, if I try to reboot, machine will hung on "shutting down network interface". looks like a rather complicated problem compare to bootp...so... thanks for any info....oh, I am using 2.4.3 chen -- ~ __ Freedom of Choice 'v' / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ // \\ / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / /( )\ /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ ^`~'^ _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
