hello,
i'm having a wierd problem with 0.31 tftpd-hpa.
i'm using xinetd, with this config:
service tftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = dgram
wait = yes
user = root
log_on_failure += USERID
bind = 10.13.0.254
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
nice = 5
instances = UNLIMITED
per_source = UNLIMITED
cps = 200 20
server_args = -p -v -v -u nobody -c
}
with this config, nothing appears to work:
Oct 29 13:53:37 nsite-mpls-1 in.tftpd[4698]: RRQ from 10.13.0.60 filename
aaa-config
Oct 29 13:53:37 nsite-mpls-1 in.tftpd[4698]: sending NAK (2, Access violation)
to 10.13.0.60
mind you that aaa-config shouldn't have any permissions problems:
[13:54:20] nsite-mpls-1:/tftpboot> ls -l aaa-config
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mbrown named 1072 Mar 5 2002 aaa-config
with these server args:
-p -v -v -u nobody -c /tftpboot
Oct 29 13:56:54 nsite-mpls-1 in.tftpd[5202]: RRQ from 10.13.0.60 filename
aaa-config
Oct 29 13:56:54 nsite-mpls-1 in.tftpd[5202]: sending NAK (2, Access violation)
to 10.13.0.60
the only server args that appear to work are:
-p -v -v -u nobody -c -s /tftpboot
but this does a chroot onto /tftpboot. i have symlinks going outside of
/tftpboot, so those directories/files are unreachable.
any ideas of how to get around this problem?
