Hi, I have a Polycom 501 that is currently unusable because I started a firmware and sip upgrade that I can't complete. The Ubuntu box address is set static at: 192.168.1.101. The phone address is set static at 192.168.1.51. The phone settings for the server menu are: Server Type: Trivial FTP Server Address: 192.168.1.101 Server User: PlcmSpIp Server Password: PlcmSpIp (not sure what it should be) Pro. Method: default I am using tcpdump to watch the network messages, and I see the phone sending messages like: 11:04:50.147597 IP 192.168.1.51.1025 > 192.168.1.101.69: 19 RRQ "bootrom.ld" octet 11:04:58.235875 IP 192.168.1.51.1027 > 192.168.1.101.69: 25 RRQ "0004f21136a1.cfg" octet 11:06:36.728815 IP 192.168.1.51.1029 > 192.168.1.101.69: 25 RRQ "000000000000.cfg" octet I have the following files in the directory /srv/tftp: 0004f21136a1.cfg bootrom.ld phone774110.cfg sip.cfg I have edited 0004f21136a1.cfg to point to phone774110.cfg I get the following message on the phone: Could not contact boot server. error loading 004f21136a1.cfg If I "ps -e" I see tftp is active. I am at a total lose how to setup and use tftp properly. I have searched the Internet and read man pages, but I can't get it into my head. Any help will be very much appreciated. -- Marlin

Look at /etc/xinetd.d/tftp (for SLES 10 (SUSE)). My "server_args" was hosed. I made it "server_args = /tftpboot -s -c -v" and everyone was happy. (except my ACT P160s, but that's another story) Entire file here (/tftpboot can be whatever you set up): # default: off # description: tftp service is provided primarily for booting or when a \ # router need an upgrade. Most sites run this only on machines acting as # "boot servers". service tftp { socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = /tftpboot -s -c -v disable = no } joe a.

IMHO, FTP really is the way to go - you get the ability to have the phones detect config file changes and automatically reboot, and you get the ability to upload logs, custom configs and directories from the phones. We use vsftpd, with the default user and password for the phone. CP On 25-Oct-06, at 7:29 AM, Doug Lytle wrote:> Marlin Unruh wrote: > >> > > Glad to say I got it working.
