When I try to pxe boot a Sun X4100 (which actually has a RHEL OS on it right now) I get the message TFTP open timeout. All traffic is allowed for port 69 udp in both directions. I do get a dhcp address. I see that both on the server and the client it gets an IP. After that I get this message in the logs:
I want a debian server running dhcp/tftp/pxe containing a tarball of a 'client' debian installation.I want a client that pxe boots, talks to the server, creates a ramdisk, untars the 'client' tarball to the ramdisk and boots into it. Once that's working, I want an NFS map back to the server for the users home directory.Can't find any really helpful howto's... wondering if anyone on here has done this?
Press F12 for network service boot PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent. When i take tcpdump on server i see dhcp discover and dhcp offer coming and going out but no tftp request on cobbler server in var/log/messages also i am seeing dhcp offer and discover
I have created a /tftpboot directory and chmod it to 777 I have put an image 'uImage' on my Debian box under /tftpboot In directory /etc/xinetd.d/ I have created file tftp:
Service tftp { disable = no socket_type= dgram protocol= udp wait= yes user= root
[Code]...
I keep geting timeouts although uImage is on the debian box and it appears the tftp server is running.
I'm trying to TFTP router configurations to a server in the same local network without having to first make files in the server's TFTP directory . The transfer of a config file from router to server works perfectly if I make a file with touch and then chmod the file with 777. I found information that says to use the -c or --create option in the TFTP configuration file (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa) if you want TFTP to work without having to create the files first. The problem is, I have set this parameter and restarted TFTP , but it is not working.
I'm trying to access data from TFTP server which is running on my fedora 15, when i tried to read that file from TFTP path..i'm getting response as time out.. even i tried to get the data in localhost itself...there also i'm getting same time out.. i tried all permission mode.

The same setup works fine in Ubuntu 10.10 setup that i have.
For about the past month I have been having a very frustrating problem When I boot the system with the ethernet cable attached it acts as if the cable is unplugged even though the connection light is litWhen I boot the system with the ethernet cable disconnected and wait until it boots all the way to gnome and then plug in the cable everything works fine
How can we use DHCP to find or allocate ipaddress in ubuntu.I have connected Hawkboard, i need to known the ip address of my system and hawkboard. how can i find ip address of board connected to system, i have used serial port null modem cable and ethernet crossover cable between the board and system
I have a custom Ubuntu distro that run both from a CD and PXE boot. The problem I have is that I need to boot in an environment that has to be routed through a router that can't forward NFS (the protocol doesn't use a standard port) I found that the Ubuntu based Clonezilla Live CD has a option like "fetch tftp://server/folder/filesystem.squashfs" I can borrow the kernel and initrd and it works, but how do I add this feature myself? Is there a package I need to install or a initrd option I need to add?
I am trying to transfer a file using tftp between two PC's. I have installed tftp-server, tftp, xinetd on both PC's. I am unable to transfer the file between the two systems. although the self transfer is working on both the system. I am getting the error "Transfer timed out"

im trying to setup a tftp server on red hat linux. Ive gone through like all the instructinos online. And like i didnt get any errors or anything when typing the commands on the terminal but basically every time i try to test it i never works sooo im not really sure how im suppose to do this. basically i have a tftp in one ip address. And with another system with a different ip address using the client tftp ipaddr(server) and i try to get foo and it never connects and I tried a ping and they ping together just fine soo im just not sure if the tftp server is even on
I've tried to configure DRBL server to use Clonezilla and that is required me to setup DHCP, TFTP serversBut I've gotten a lot of errors from them - so please look at my attachments from /var/log/messages and dhcpd.conf - help me to find out what are wrong with them.

This is very old topic but despite of trying out all possible solutions available on net and forums, I am not able to setup tftp server on my 2.6.32.11-99.FC12.i686.PAE. Is there something obvious missing out.

I have been trying to install Ubuntu by network booting, I used tftp in Windows in another pc, and the target boots successfully but fails to download from any archive mirror, I'm not sure what goes wrong.
Well, I'm trying to do is, my friend's HP-mini fails to boot to Windows, and BIOS also gives error-messages, the thing is that my friend has important data on his netbook, it has only one drive, no cd-rom, and it doesn't support USB-booting, so I was thinking if I get to access an Ubuntu, I will be able to backup his data and install Windows, I would use anything that would let me copy files.
Do we really need the lines if I am allowing any machine to connect? And I have only 1 network card. This is acting as a dedicated TFTP server.I ask as I get an error on the get and put commands as below:
tftp> get xxx.txt tftp: error received from server <File not found> tftp: aborting
However although it gives an error it DOES GET the file.The put command however does NOT put the file. I have nobody / nogroup setup for the directory permissions as well.
tftp> put .vimrc tftp: error received from server <File not found> tftp: aborting
I am trying to put a file from one linux machine to my other linux machine. There is absolutely no problem in downloading the file i.e. performing the "get" operation but when I try to upload or "put file" from my host1 to host2 it throws error "Error 0 Permission denied". I am able to put files from host2 to host1 without any problem but not from host1 to host. Infact if I try to tftp even localhost on host2 it throws the same error. Here is my
/etc/xinetd.d/tftp file for host2 service tftp { socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -c -s /tftpboot #disable = yes disable = no per_source = 11 cps = 100 2 flags = IPv4 } And permissions on /tftpboot are 777 [root@LinuxServer /]# ls -ld /tftpboot/ drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Jan 6 05:21 /tftpboot/ [root@LinuxServer /]# ls -l /tftpboot/ total 16 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Jan 6 06:16 new_test -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jan 5 06:02 test2
And the command which I am using is : [root@LinuxServer /]# tftp localhost -c put new_test Error code 0: Permission denied And ya here is /etc/sysconfig/selinux file is as under : # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - SELinux is fully disabled. SELINUX=permissive # SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are: # targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected. # strict - Full SELinux protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted
I'm trying to setup a network boot server and I'm having an issue with tftp. In the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file, I added the "-v" (verbose) option to the server arg line so that i could figure out what was happening. When i looked at the /var/log/messages log file, it let me know that permission was denied to /tftpboot/nbi_img.
So, in short, my problem is that tftp isn't working because it doesn't have permission to /tftpboot/nbi_img. I can't figure out why. I stumbled upon a site where the user figured out a temporary fix to this issue and what he did was disabled the xinetd service and typed the following command:/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -l -v -v -s /tftpboot/nbi_imgWhen I do this as well, it works! but only until I restart and then I have to do that again. Is there a way to be able to fix that for good?
Is there a trick to allowing a TFTP connection to create a file? I can successfully tftfp (from a cisco router) if I touch the file first, but otherwise, (/tftpboot has been chmoded to 777) I get [TFTP: error code 2 received - 20334]
You are running tftpd as an on demand server i.e. it is only fired up when it is needed. Services run by xinetd are always run on demand. Have you actually tested if tftp on another system can access your PC i.e.
In Jaunty (9.04) I've setup a small (eleven-terminal) ltsp network at the local school. It handled around 6600 working hours with ease. Now I've upgrade the server to Karmic Koala (9.10) and it just stopped working. 1) The clients have PXE NICs 2) They get the proper IPs from the DHCP server and respond appropriately to changes in the DHCP configuration files. 3) DHCP server also points the clients to filename=/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0 4) When the clients try to download the pxelinux.0 over tftp they just timeout 5) /etc/inetd.conf has an entry like tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot 6) The file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0 exists on the server
I'm lost at all these configuration files and protocols.
I'm trying to put / get files a machine running a tftp server but with no success .The client machine is behind a firewall and this is cause of the problem as when the firewall is disabled I can transfer files.I've tried to add this rule but the firewall still blocks the transfer.

I have checked several tutorial sites, to no avail. I can't seem to get Winpe 3.0 to boot over tftpd/pxe.Has anyone successful done this using Ubuntu 9.10?, or am I just wasting my time trying.
I'm Melvin, doing a hardware and networking course at Aptech, Kerala, India. How to install IOS image (file.bin) via TFTP from Ubuntu to a Cisco 2600 router. Please post the required steps to configure tftpd in Ubuntu. And since it is insecure, please post recommendations to secure it. Which folder will TFTPd use and what binary permissions to assign to this folder?
