Hi Gurus,
We have installed Tru64Unix 5.0a in our DEC 3000 boxes,
where we had DU 4.0a and from where a vxt2000+ terminal
used to boot through bootp/tftp. After the upgrade to 5.0a
we made the link /usr/sbin/bootpd -> /usr/opt/obsolete/usr/sbin/bootpd,
edited /etc/inetd.conf and included the lines
bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/bootpd bootpd -d 4
tftp dgram udp wait nobody /usr/sbin/tftpd tftpd -d -r /tftpboot
and generated /etc/bootptab containing
vxtfisica:\
ht=ethernet:ha=08002bbe691e:ip=xxx.xx.xx.xx:hd=/tftpboot:bf=vxt2:
The directory /tftpboot exists, linked to somewhere else and contains:
1120 -rw-r--r-- 1 root system 1131520 Dec 14 1999 as400_v7_0.exe
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 9 Sep 9 15:22 fonts -> vxt/fonts
712 -rw-r--r-- 1 root system 714752 Dec 13 1999 m300_v7_0.btp
1 drwxr-xr-x 5 root system 512 Jan 2 1997 vxt
4960 -r-xr-xr-- 1 root system 5069824 Jan 3 1997 vxt2
Everything worked fine for some time but now the terminal
cannot boot. The daemon.log contains the following relevant
information:
Dec 14 15:11:44 xxxxxxx bootpd[20382]: recvd pkt from IP addr 0.0.0.0 via IP addr 164.xx.xx.255

I have tried to copy /tftpboot/vxt2 to /tftpboot/vxt2.vxtfisica to no
avail. Could anybody tell me how to solve this?
TIA,
