 Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2014 8:28 Post subject: Client doesn't boot via TFTP |
 |
|
I recently installed m23 via basis installation of debian wheezy and adding m23 repository.
This works without problems.
After integration the first client and trying to boot it, things starting to fail.
- dhcp is working (external isc-dhcp-server)
here is the code via | Code: | | http://m23-Server-IP/exportDHCPSettings.php |
| Code: | | host edv01 { option dhcp-server-identifier 192.168.x.x; option root-path "/"; next-server 192.168.x.x; hardware ethernet xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx; fixed-address 192.168.x.y; filename "pxelinux.0"; option broadcast-address 192.168.x.255; option routers 192.168.x.z; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;} |
tftp is running, but client doesn't get "pxelinux.0".
I tried via package tftp-hda on a different client
| Code: | tftp <IP>
get pxelinux.0 |
This get the correct pxelinux.0 file.
I wonder, where the problem is. |

I found the problem by myself.
On the m23 server, the file "/etc/default/tftpd-hda was like this
| Code: |
TFTP_OPTIONS="--verbose --verbose --secure"
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/m23/tftp"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
|
I changed the first line to
| Code: | | TFTP_OPTIONS="--listen --verbose --secure" |
I'm hoping, this will help other as well |

Hi,
thank you for your report 
The doubled "--verbose" is really not intended. I will fix it in the next update.
On my tests there were no problems booting a client via the network and using the TFTP server even with the doubled "--verbose". I've just checked it and am able to fetch "m23install" via TFTP with the doubled "--verbose" in the config file. The man page of in.tftpd says that "--listen" configures the TFTP-hpa to run in standalone mode instead of the inetd mode.
Is there no inetd on your system?
