[syslinux] tftpd-hpa feature suggestion

[Craig]

I asked the same question a while back. :)

hpa's response;

Read the rest of the thread, there is some good discussion.

One possible workaround was to use a dynamic filesystem such as FUSE. 
Unfortunately, that is more involved than I want right now. I have done 
an "out of band" system where the files are created by another process. 
Not truly dynamic, but it works for my specific application.... at 
least, for now.

I too would love to see dynamic tftp content, but I appreciate the 
technical difficulties.
