I'm still trying to figure out why the standard tftp won't accept ack connections from 0.0.0.0. It will recv ack's from a normal IP address just fine. It can't be the firewall because I can set it to "pass all" and restart with the same results. The tftp daemon is started from inetd. The server process is somewhat different for a inetd daemon as it recieves on socket 0 instead after it starts. It creates a socket for further communication after it retries the initial UDP packet sent. It sucessfully sends the first packet on this socket but it doesn't recv ack's for the packet though tcpdump see's them come in. The recv timesout and then it resends the first packet. The only thing I can think of is that inetd must initialize it's sockets in some special way to recieve from 0.0.0.0. Chris
