Solaris 9 Jumpstart tftp problems
Hi All,
I'm trying to setup a Jumpstart on Ultra 5 running Solaris 9. The Jumpstart will serve Solaris 10 to x86 machines with PXE boot. I got most of the jumpstart elements worked out, but tftp seems to causing some issues. Also, there is no DHCP, coz in a produciton envrioment there won't be any DHCP(security reasons). Hence the Boot server will be in the same LAN segment.
I get the client (x86) to boot and look for Jumpstart server. The grub menu does rarp. Then it goes to download the x86.miniroot, thats when I get File Not Found error.
Here is the tftp server entry in inetd.conf in jumpstart server:
tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
When I do ps -ef | grep tftp, I get nothing. However, netstat revelas that port 69 is idle.
I can tftp to the server. And when I try to download the same x86.miniroot file, I get this error:
Transfer timed out.
The connections times out (always) when I've downloaded 32MB of x86.miniroot (total size is 48MB).. weird..
The grub menu at client looks like this:
rarp
kernel /I86PC.Solaris_10-1/multiboot kernel/unix -B install_config=10.1.2.80:/opt/jumpstart/config,sysid_config=10.1.2.80:/opt/jump start/intel,
install_media=10.1.2.80:/opt/jumpstart/intel,install_boot=10.1.2.80:/opt/jumpst art/intel/boot
module /I86PC.Solaris_10-1/x86.miniroot

Any suggestions? I'm concerned about tftp entry in inetd.conf. Does it have have a user in.tftpd in /etc/passwd
How do I enable debuging in tftp? And where does the debug logs reside?
Thanks,
Nitin
