<![CDATA[Tftpd logging??]]>Hi!

I am searching how to enable tftpd logging. For tptpd-proxy I found adding "-v" does it. But this does not help with some errors I am encounting. I need tftpd writing logs. What are the options the tftpd server uses? I found "-w" to make it accept put-requests and "-s" to changeroot to the given directory. But I could not find an option to make it log to syslog.

Any idea??

Exactly what I needed to do - I'm always tickled when someone actually posts their own solution instead of saying "I fixed it" - I've added a few links to your note - there are lots of other people with similar issues, but some of them don't seem to have found answers as pretty.

Cheers!

The error leads to delivery of files with relative paths, but fails finding ones with an absolute path given (files retrived by "boot/pxe.0" are found, while ones retrived by "/boot/pxe.0" are not).

Solution: remove the tftp-server package, then go to the dns-forwarder configuration and enter (in advanced configuration):

tftp-root=/tftpboot
enable-tftp

After saving this new config, dnsmasq will enable its internal tftp-server and serve files from "/tftpboot" to the clients. Works like a charm, because this tftp-server does what it is expected to do: handle paths with "/" prepended correctly (drawback: this tftp-server does not allow writing to the served filesystem at all)!
