I have a PrintServer 17 that currently boots from an Ultrix box. I have
obtained LPS 5.1 and would like to install it on a machine running DU 4.0
(first of all is this possible?). I can not use lpsbootd since we use
bootp to boot other devices (note: we use joind instead of bootp, but as
far as I know joind is a completely compatible extension to bootp). I have
configured the bootptab and inetd.conf, and can see joind attempting to
answer the bootp requests. Unfortunately it never responds to any of the
bootp requests. So in summary here are my questions:
1. Can I install LPS 5.1 on DU 4.0?
2. Is joind completely compatible with bootp? If not, where can I obtain
bootpd?
3. What else could be causing these problems?
All suggestions are welcome and will be summarized. Many thanks!
