I know there's tftpd (and maybe rarpd?) involved. I've got my /tftpboot dir setup and uncommented the line in inetd.conf, followed by a kill -HUP on inetd. I've got the ip assigned in my /etc/hosts and caught somewhere that it needs a /etc/ethers file also. I don't have one, so I'm not sure of the syntax? Could someone shed some light on this? Also, is the rarpd supposed to be running along side the tftpd? TIA. -Otter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
