That's weird.  NT doing something that works and Linux not?  Oh yeah,
that's right... MS contributed some money to Apple right about then... ;-)
Sorry... couldn't resist throwing out a conspiracy theory.  heheheh.

BTW, I doubt anybody every tried doing tftp with MkLinxu DR3.  You might
try grabbing the SRPM from pre-R1 (ftp.mklinux.org or any mirror) and
doing an rpm --rebuild tftp*.src.rpm, then an rpm --install tftp*.rpm and
see if the current one works.
