Are there any open source efforts ( I haven't found any) that have a tftp server with a mysql backend? I'd like an incoming pxelinux request to give the tftp server the mac address, and then it performs a query to find out which configuration file it should get. Of course it would be great if some day tftp-hpa would integrate with libmysql.. Thanks, James James S. Martin, RHCE

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

Hello all, We are trying to make our own NFSroot via PXELINUX without the e1000 ethernet module compiled into the kernel. All works fine, we have a ramdisk that can setup networking from information provided by $ip, however I would like to download the specific e1000.o via tftp before inserting it into to the kernel. Since ramdisks are static I rather not have the situation where we have to

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.

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

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)

I have observed that the tftp-hpa-0.48 tftp client sends an ACK in case it receives an error message from a tftp server. Inspecting the source code confirms this behaviour. According to the tftp RFC (RFC 1350), Sect. 2, server error messages should not be acknowledged by the client: "Most errors cause termination of the connection. An error is signalled by sending an error packet. This

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

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 {

Good day, I'd just like a bit of information about the source ports that hpa-tftp uses for its TFTP file transfers. We're using it to transfer files across a network that we have heavily firewalled. So, we'd like to know which ports the TFTP server might use as the source port for its data transfers and/or any ways to configure a range that it can use. I dug through the man page,

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

After a few days of troubleshooting, we finally determined why we were having problems. It seems as though the tftp-hpa daemon requires the MTU of the interface it's running on to be >= 1500. We had the MTU set at 1400 (don't ask why) and the PXE client was receiving fragmented packets and failing. As soon as we set it to over 1500, it worked fine. hpa, Could you please update

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

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

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

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

Thank you for the info Groeten. I have the TFTPD-HPA server address set to 192.168.1.9:69 I am unable to ping this address and I wonder if the server address should be the same as the network interface card (ethernet card) I am using. The files I want to upload are in /srv/tftpboot, so I'm not sure why the command cd /tmp was used. John At 03:21 PM 9/2/2015, Geert Stappers via Syslinux

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
