Thanks for the contribution Hugo. The reason why I thought it might be an
issue was because of the description of atftpd in debian/ubuntu.
Specifically this part:
"Multi-threaded TFTP server implementing all options (option extension and
multicast) as specified in RFC1350, RFC2090, RFC2347, RFC2348 and RFC2349."
I was wondering if anyone on the list knew if the MediaMVPs, or the H3,
needed any one of these options mentioned in these RFCs.
The description for tftpd-hpa says it implements extra options, but there is
nothing about "all options", which I'm assuming is significant if atftpd
says it.
If no one knows about any specific or esoteric options that the MediaMVP
needs then that might help explain why tftpd-hpa didn't work before.
