5. Finally, scroll down to [Finish] and press the Enter key.
Example C-2 shows a TFTP daemon configuration for xinetd stored in
/etc/xinet.d/tftpd.
Example: C-2 Configuring a TFTP daemon in the /etc/xinet.d/tftp file on SLES11
# default: off
# description: tftp service is provided primarily for booting or when a
\
# router need an upgrade. Most sites run this only on machines
acting as
# "boot servers".
service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /tftpboot
disable = no
}
Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SLES create TFTP from the xinetd daemon.
Restart the xinetd service after the tftp configuration is complete by:
venus:/ # service xinetd restart
Shutting down xinetd: done
Starting INET services. (xinetd) done
The next step is to copy the bootable installation kernel into the /tftpboot
directory. The bootable kernel must match the Linux distribution that you install. It
must also match the
file name listed in the dhcpd.conf, as shown in Example C-1
on page 537. The process is slightly different for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and
SLES, so we document both separately here.
Copying the SLES11 install kernel
To copy the SLES11 install kernel, use the following procedure:
1. Mount the SLES11 DVD1 on the system running the tftp server. For example,
on a system running SLES, type:
mount /dev/sr0 /mnt
Tip: You can edit the etc/xinet.d/tftp file using a text editor as well.
