hi,
   I have trying to get an Xterminal to work off of a Linux box.
My first problem (there may be more later) is to get tftp working
so that the Xterminal can find its boot file.

I have added the folowing lines to inetd.conf

tftp    dgram   udp     wait    root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /tftpboot

and created the diredtory /tftpboot. 

It doesn't work. I get the following (lycra is the linux box, host is a sun).

       
host> tftp lycra
tftp> get testfile
tftp> error code 2. Access violation

going the other way works fine. Any ideas or pointers ?
