similar to: atftpd versus tftpd-hpa

I'm trying to network boot a thin client using pxelinux. I had this working about a year ago but have since reinstalled my OS (went from RH9 to FC2). I'm using atftpd. The thin client gets the dhcp address fine and requests pxelinux.0. Eventually, it just times out. Here's the relevant info from /var/log/messages: Oct 7 23:14:36 home atftpd[4717]: Advanced Trivial FTP server started

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

Hi, I am trying to setup my own PXE boot server. I tried several PXE bootable Linux-Distributions. For example if I use the ubuntu netboot image from [1] it works quit well but there are a few other images they do not work in my case e.g.: RIPLinuX [2]. A friend tested this image on his PXE boot server with success. I also checked the download with md5sum. In my case I can see the boot menu [3].

Gene and co, Now my pxelinux efi 64 boot is properly loading syslinux.efi (via TFTP) It then issues a TFTP file request for efi.x64/pxelinux.cfg/ldlinux.e64. (All my efi x64 content is under efi.x64/pxelinux.cfg). However, I see that it fails to properly negotiate the TFTP options with my TFTP server. so it never transfers ldlinux.e64 over. In its file request packet, it asks for these TFTP

Hi, I've been struggling with this problem for the last couple of hours and am nowhere near solving the problem. I am trying to run a tftp server in a chroot jail. Now perhaps I am being paranoid, but I would like to have it launched from within its own jail even if it supposedly does a chroot itself and runs with a parameterizable user. I downloaded the atftp-server package and tried

One is 64bit and almost 90MB and the 32bit is 85MB. I know that some tftpd

Hello specialists In setting up a diskless X-Terminal I got stuck with the transfer of the ramdisk from the server to the target. With a ramdisk image size of about 60 Mb things go well, the file gets transfered completely and Linux boots perfectly. With a ramdisk image size of about 104 Mb the tftp transfer of the kernel succeds but the transfer of the ramdisk image fails. As tftp daemon I

I'm having some difficulties pxe booting Solaris. So far I have tried the mboot.c32, and the pxegrub shipped with Solaris. At first I had some problems with blksize, but this disapeared when I changed from atftpd to tftpd-hpa. The point at which I'm stuck now is, the kernel and x86.microroot/x86.miniroot is loaded but then VMWare crashes. I might try with real hardware, but I thought

Hello. Just to let everyone know: I've came across a motherboard with Intel Boot Agent GE 1.2.36 which is not able to get pxelinux.0 from tftpd-hpa 0.48 (configure ; make ; make install) without `-r blksize` option. Regards, Petya.

Hi, i'm trying to get my VIA Epia with VIA Rhine ethernet device to boot PXELinux. I have done this before, but now i can't get it to work. The machine loads pxelinux.0, i see some messages. But it fails just after trying reading the first config file (the one with the mac address). It kinda says this (transcribed): CLIENT IP: 192.168.1.23 MASK: 255.255.255.0 DHCP IP: 192.168.1.93

I've got a Cisco 7970 that's not completing its network registration to Asterisk. The "Registering" message stays on the screen (with the moving time wheel). After a few minutes, the onscreen message flashes "Updating CTL" then "Loading...", then the status messages update with: No valid CAPF server File Not Found: CTLFile.tlv No CTL installed

I just wanted to post this so that it was out there and Googleable. Hopefully it will save other people a bit of time. If you have a Cisco phone (I was testing with a 7970, though presumably it would affect 7960 and others as well) that is looping trying to fetch the CTL tlv file - it may be because you are using Debians 'tftpd' (should be netkit-tftpd...*cough*hey, Debian

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

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

I would like to start a discussion centred around the various ways one might serve up configuration files from an Asterisk server (I know, it's better to use a secondary server for all this, but let's talk about a smaller system). The types of things being served would include: - Logo image for sets that support that - XML directory files - XML or raw text configuration files -

I'm using tftp-hpa. I had disabled the blocksize option (-r blocksize) for some reason that I can't remember now. Re-enabling it and setting to 1468 gives the same results. Considering I'm using http to transfer the kernels, initrd and images, I don't think the slowness will be an problem. Thanks for the suggestions though.
