Yeah, I double checked on the man page, l is to run without xinetd, and -a
setts the address. (The v is obviously the verbosity in the logs.)

Originally the only way I had of knowing was using tftp 192.168.1.51 16869
as opposed to just tftp 192.168.1.51. However, I took your advice, and
moved the dongle.bin.ver, and reran the test. I was able to pull each file
only using its respective port. I also ran a md5sum and they matched.
Unfortunately, I double checked with Windows, and while I can get the
original dongle.bin to boot, when I try the mvpmc dongle, it simply gives me
Failed to find GUI server. I'll get out tcpdump since I can run it from a
console, and try to hone in on what's actually going on.
