I'm curious about a message that I receive while pxe booting.  It doesn't
seem to affect anything, but I wonder why it is there.  My tftp server is
tftp-hpa.  Below is part of /var/log/messages.  The message I am curious
about is:
Jun  6 15:44:44 devmstr tftpd[29276]: tftp: client does not accept options
Why do I get this and should I do something about it?  Thanks!

This is linux and my /etc/xinetd.d/tftp looks like this:

service tftp
{
        socket_type             = dgram
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes
        user                    = root
        server                  = /usr/sbin/tftpd
        server_args             = -v -vv -r blksize
}


--> here's the part of the syslog leading up to the error:
