Hi, I just tried to boot my token ring devices with 2.05 - to no avail, it hangs after loading the kernel. I then tried older versions, and found 2.03 booting like a charm, and every 2.04-pre including 2.04 hanging. Here's the config of the devices: - Networkstation 2800 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 - IBM Thinkpad T21 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 Maybe this has to do with the changes

I have released SYSLINUX 2.06; it's basically identical to 2.06-pre4. I'm doing this now because the bug fixes are so major and because I am not sure I'll be around next week. -hpa 2.06 is a bug fix release. Changes in 2.06: * ALL: Fix problem that would occationally cause a boot failure, depending on the length of the kernel. * ISOLINUX: Fix problem

I'm difficulty diagnosing a tftp-hpa problem. Specfically, when performing a PXE boot, the machine hangs at the "TFTP...." and times out. This is only occuring at one network location (we'll call it network A). Now on network B, the computers on network can tftp boot no problem. If I run a tftp client from my workstation to connect to the tftp-hpa server on network A, I can

From: Ron <ron at debian.org> Hi, I've just taken over maintaining the packages for this in Debian, and we've been carrying a couple of patches for a while now that really should have been forwarded since they're clearly not distro specific. I added a third one to that yesterday to fix another autoconf build 'race' seen when doing parallel builds. Cheers, Ron

Hi I'm working on an update of the openbsd tftpd, mainly to support RFC 2349 (tsize option; and 2347-2348 too). In fact, i backport from tftp-hpa (which came from an old openbsd cvs). I know, i can use tftp-hpa but first it doesn't compile on openbsd, second, i hope the backport could be include in openbsd cvs ... does someone know a tftp client or a test to really know what is good or

I haven't encountered this problem before. This is from a Compaq DL320, with Intel Boot Agent 4.0.17 and tftp-hpa-0.28 running on Solaris. The PXE stack gets its IP address just fine, but it times out on the TFTP. While snooping on the Solaris box and grepping for TFTP, I found that the box gets one block of the TFTP transfer just fine. TFTP Read "pxelinux.0" (octet)

Hi, I have a tftp client which loads quite happily from a tftpd built from netkit-tftp-0.16 but which fails to load from from a tftpd built from tftp-hpa 0.29. In both cases, tftpd was built from pristine sources and run from xinetd under Redhat 7.3. [netkit-tftp-0.16 is the ancestor of tftp-hpa, predating HPA's maintenance of same] [the tftp client also.. .. fails with the prebuilt tftpd

Hello. In my case I can successfully boot up my Thinkpad X32, but the same configuration doesn't work for my desktop computer with Intel network card, with Intel Boot Agent 2.2 DHCP server is 10.0.0.1, tftpd (used tftp-hpa) runs on 10.0.0.32. netstat told me the daemon listen to 69 UDP port just fine. running tftp in commandline also shows it works (retrieve pxelinux.0 less then 1 second).

How many simultaneous tftp connections can tftp-hpa handle? Thanks for any info. -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

Good morning everybody, I'm pretty new to syslinux & tftp-hpa, and so I'm not quite sure where my question belongs to, but I'll try it here first. I want to enhance the network services by offering a LTSP (just for the case the pc or laptop doesn't work for some reasons). And so, for testing, I added a second linux-based system (lets call it system-b). Currently the tftpd

Hello tftp-hpa community, I am trying to locate a tftp server that I can integrate with an external program/database application, and was wondering if tftp-hpa might have the capability I am looking for. Upon the tftp server receiving a read request, and before it sending a read request reply, I would like to communicate to an external program (and/or database). In real-time, the external

Hi: I compiled and run tftp-hpa-0.33 on my Solaris 2.7 but it does not support file size larger than 16MB. The tftpd time out when 16MB of file is transfered. Can anyone offer a hint for how to enable tftp-hpa to support large file size ? Very appreciate Geefu Wang

Good day, Just a quick question- could someone please confirm that this is the correct xinetd configuration (or not) for hpa-tftp? We've noticed that, when under moderate load hpa-tftpd resides in memory, even after there are no connections or even if xinetd is shut down. Under light load the server goes away after each connection, as desired. Thanks in advance! service tftp {

I'm interested to find out how many people are running tftp-hpa versus atftpd. I'm almost a bit surprised in how many people seem to be using tftp-hpa; for modern Unix systems (including Linux), I would in general assume atftpd to be a better choice. If you have tried both and specifically chosen (as opposed to "it was already installed", etc.) I'd be interested in

Greetings, Is this list (a|the best) place to make feature requests for tftp-hpa? If not, would you point me in the right direction, please? Thanks much! -m

Hi, we're running tftp-hpa on a machine which will have to accept packets on an aliased IP (for service redundancy and fallback). The server is reachable using the alias, but replies using the primary IP of the interface, which provokes a timeout on the client. The workaround is to run tftp stand-alone and to explicitly specify the alias IP on the command-line -- however this is not very

Okay, I have come to agree that tftp-hpa needs some kind of execution support. The two alternatives which have been proposed in the past is a flag in the regex map to run a program and deliver its output, and the other one is a flag in the regex map to serve as an HTTP proxy (get a file via HTTP and deliver via TFTP.) At the moment, I'm thinking the HTTP proxy might be the best solution;

Hello, I am trying to flash new firmware into a router using TFTP-HPA. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 on a flash drive and still learning how to use Linux. I have also installed XINETD.D In one of the README files that comes with TFTP-HPA it said not to call it using tptp. Here are the instructions I'm trying to follow: cd /tmp ; tftp -gl aa 192.168.0.9; sh aa I do not know what
