Category: systemimager-server Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: mkbootserver tftp test fails Initial Comment: Hello, While trying to debug a tftp server problem, I found a problem with the /usr/sbin/mkbootserver script. After a while I couldn't run the script anymore, always encountering the following message : Does tftp server work... couldn't tell. Unable to come up with an unused filename Here is a complete transcript of the session : # pwd /root # mkbootserver This script may modify the following files: /etc/services /etc/inetd.conf /etc/xinetd.d/tftp You should already have a kernel and ramdisk to use. Do you wish to continue (y/[n])? y Ok, continuing... Where should tftpd serve files from ([/tftpboot]? y y doesn't exist, should I create it (y/[n])? y Creating y...Checking for a tftp server... found. Checking if tftp server is H. Peter Anvin's tftp server... doesn't look like it. Checking if tftp server is atftpd... yup - right on! Checking for a running inetd... 1821. Checking for a running xinetd... Not found. Looking for update-inetd... found. Updating inetd.conf... done. Sending a SIGHUP to inetd (pid 1821)... done. Looking for a tftp client... found. Checking for loopback interface... up. Does tftp server work... couldn't tell. Unable to come up with an unused filename tftp server test failed. Looks like each time the mkbootserver is executed, the file /usr/sbin/test[0-9] gets created and is left there. After 10 iterations, mkbootserver can no longer be executed. Is it normal to leave those files in the /usr/sbin directory after execution ?
