Hi, I've been attempting to run a TFTP server on the firewall for PXE booting.
Long story short, I've tried every variation on defining a service for TFTP that I can think of, however I can not get PXE booting to work. I am able to use a tftp client at the command line on another host to copy files from the firewall, but actually doing it during a PXE boot causes timeout errors. I've used both atftpd and tftpd-hpa. With atftpd, in the syslog, I see that the tftp server is receiving some kind of data, however the client never receives the files. The following is the service definition I have used for vuurmuur: ACTIVE="yes" UDP="69*69" BROADCAST="no" COMMENT="Trivial File Transfer Protocol" PROTO_41="" GRE="" AH="" ESP="" ICMP="" HELPER="tftp" (I have used many variations of this, with and without the conntrack helper). Additionally, I have these rules (among others) defined: RULE="Accept service any from firewall to local.lan" RULE="Accept service tftp from local.lan to firewall" What am I doing wrong? I would really like to get my PXE boot environment up and running and self-contained on the firewall -- as it is, I am forced to run the tftp server on a separate system which is not ideal. Also if it matters (I do not know if it does or not), I am not launching tftp from inetd. Instead I am having atftpd run as a standalone daemon. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -- Kenneth Shaw ExpiTrans, Inc. 1401 Dove St, Suite 260 Newport Beach, CA 92660 tel: 949.650.4600 fax: 949.642.6044 [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Vuurmuur-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vuurmuur-users
