Interesting. It might be the retry timing, if the retry doesn't happen to arrive at the wrong time things might just work. We you also getting a kernel panic with the FreeBSD TFTP server ? I also have a Windoze based tftp server that I wrote, but I haven't tried it yet. I'll give it a try and see what happens. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
