Hi, I've been sorting out a network boot strategy for a mixed network (NT/2K based server, booting linux clients). As I'm running (not by choice) Windows based servers, I have been trying to use Philippe Jounins excellent tftp server. Have you had any reports of problems with the latest version of his server (v2.51 tftpd32j.zip) ? I was getting an error about the server not supporting tsize when trying to get the config file. I have gone back to v2.21 (tftpd32i.zip) which works fine. I'm using the latest version of syslinux (v2.00, 25-Oct-2002). I've sent an email to Philippe as well, so this is probably usefull just for information (unless it is due to a very strange interaction between these particular versions) Thanks, Allen Clarke.

I don't mean to detract from Phillipe's efforts, but I seriously recommend HaneWIN DHCP/TFTP server for a quick Win32 server solution (shareware 29 euros - can run as a service). Regards, Michael.
Try to use the 2.21 version. -----Original Message----- From: Allen Clarke [mailto:aclarke at tmsc.co.uk] Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 12:10 PM To: syslinux at zytor.com Subject: [syslinux] tftpd32 Hi, I've been sorting out a network boot strategy for a mixed network (NT/2K based server, booting linux clients).
