OK think I found a problem-

/etc/tftpboot says:
>pmax240a.mydom.com:\

>      :sa=192.168.1.1:bf=install:

however the logs say:
>Oct 25 20:05:22 heretic dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from 08:00:2b:33:e1:07 via eth0
>Oct 25 20:05:22 heretic dhcpd: BOOTREPLY for 192.168.1.5 to pmax240a 
>(08:00:2b:33:e1:07) via eth0
>Oct 25 20:05:23 heretic tftpd[8368]: tftpd: trying to get file: /install
  
^^^^^^

when I issue from another host:
>septilum> tftp 192.168.1.1
>tftp> get install
>Received 3594604 bytes in 33.8 seconds

It's of course successful. However the log says:
>Oct 25 20:07:51 heretic tftpd[8370]: tftpd: trying to get file: install
  
^^^^^
						(not /install)
>Oct 25 20:07:51 heretic tftpd[8370]: tftpd: serving file from /tftpboot


So it appears when I specify "install" the bootp client interprets it 
as "/install".

I have also tried
>pmax240a.mydom.com:\
>      :ht=ethernet:ha=08002B33E107:\
>      :ip=192.168.1.5:sm=255.255.255.0:\
>      :sa=192.168.1.1:td=/tftpboot:bf=install:

in /bootptab

Thanks again for your help.

I have moved things to the internal network in ymy room rather than
keeping them at work. This is a much simplified networks so things will
be easier. Am hoping to install on the 200 and then put the disk on the
240.  Intend to use it as a departmental ftp server eventually. Have an
old 200 running ultrix right now but we didn't want to futz with y2k
compliance. So now my linux box is seeing the bootp request.  It's a
first step...


I am still interested in the errs I was getting on the 240.

</excerpt>

So here's where I am:


The 200 is sending out bootp requests- at least about 15 sec after I
do

<excerpt><excerpt>boot 6/tftp

</excerpt></excerpt>

the linux box logs

<excerpt>Oct 25 19:01:45 heretic in.bootpd[8188]: version 2.4.0

</excerpt>

However nothing happens then. The 200 is not timing out, so it must be
getting something.


TFTP is working correctly.


Any ideas? When I netboot our iMac it logs as a dhcpd BOOTREQUEST and
logs the MAC address and then fails at

dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST  from 00:50:e4:90:ed:62 vi eth0

dhcpd: No applicable record for BOOTP host 00:50:e4:90:ed:62


So should I be doing something with DHCP?


I have the 200 on a coax line but I suppose that if it were not working
the bootp request would time out and wouldn't log on heretic (the linux
box)
