I read in a "howto" that the tftp server supplied RH 7.2 supports
"tsize" if you set "disable = no"
A re-check of my dhcp.conf revealed that the filename specified in the
server config article was not what was provided in the second article
which addressed the client side config. Corrected and lo and behold
thinknic finds the boot server.
However; I get a timeout error. Page three of article 2) (pxelinux
section) mentions this as a possible result of pxelinux searching for
the config file within /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/ directory. I'm trying to
sort it out now.
Context: For the sake of continuity I continued using the two docs, and
associated
files, with which I started. They are :
1) "LTSP - Linux Terminal Server Project - v3.0" by James McQuillan
for my server
side and;
2) "LTSP - ThinkNIC HOWTO" by John Robertson for the terminal side.
I haven't started following the docs Ian mentioned - yet. I didn't want
to blend
multiple recipies for phear of getting completly lost.
Both server and thinknic are configured well enough that the thinknic
finds the dhcp
server and gets an ip number. Here is what I see on screen next:
TFTP
PXE-T01: file not found
TFTP
PXE-T01: file not found
PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - file not found
Is this where tftpd fails and is therefore the reason to use hpa-tftpd
server? I'm
guessing yes is the answer. I've looked around a little and haven't
found an rpm for
RH - do you know where one is hiding? Meantime I'll continue to look.
