John, By adding the -s (thought RH 8 didn't need it) to the server_args line (/etc/xinetd.d/tftp) per Jim McQuillan's email, I no longer get "TFTP error 2 (Access Violation)". I once again get the on-going string of dots (.....) much like I got when I didn't have tftp server running.
Your suggestions of looking at the user looks promising. Looking in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp I find user = nobody??? The full file less comments = service tftp { socket_type = dgram wait = yes user = nobody log_on_success += USERID log_on_failure += USERID server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -s /tftpboot disable = no } Note: the -s in the server_args was just added per Jim's email/ /tftpboot has permissions 755 with owner = root and group = root /tftpboot/lts has permissions 755 with owner = root and group = root and BTW /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1 has permissions 644 (rw-r--r-- with owner = root and group = root Thnx, George -----Original Message----- From: John McCreesh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 1:45 PM To: George Gambill Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] TFTP error 2 (Access Violation) On Thu, 16 Jan 2003 12:56:51 -0700 George Gambill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Now the client gives me: > > Loading 192.168.100.254:/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1 .TFTP error 2 Access > Violation) > Unable to load file > > Any Ideas as to where to look for what is preventing it Check /etc/xinetd.d/tftp to see what user tftp is running as; then ls -l /tftpboot and /tftpboot/lts to make sure that user can read the files?
