tftpd not starting
2007-12-24 20:16:00
I am unable to get tftp working on our jumpstart
server which is running Solaris8 6/00. Here are the
things I have checked/done:
- the tftp line in /etc/inetd.conf is not commented
out. I also checked to make sure that there are no
hidden characters and no initial space before tftp
entry. The protocol in Solaris 8 seems to be changed
from "udp" to "udp6" for IPv6 stuff. I even tried with
"udp" but had no luck.
- performed a kill -HUP on inetd_pid several times.
- ran ps -ef | grep tftp to see if the daemon starts
up when there is a tftp connection but had no luck.
- ran truss on inetd and it shows up as sleeping even
when there is a tftp connection.(it does not start
in.tftpd)
- rebooted the box out of frustration but still no
luck.
- ran /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /tftpboot manually this
runs for a while and exits. Reran it with truss but
there are no errors.
- where does tftpd log things?
Am I missing something or am I just stupid?
Thank you,
