X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 02 Mar 2004 03:46:56 -0000 Hi, I'm using bootpd for booting-up another diskless PC. In inetd.conf, I have enabled the bootps line, but to my surprise, bootpd keeps running continuously after being called once. I thought wrapping the daemon up in the inetd superserver would prevent this. I have tried already the bootpd-flags "-t 5" and "-i" to no avail. Any idea what's wrong here, or am I myself making a mistake here ? Thanks, Rob.
