B.1 SETTING UP A UNIX WORKSTATION AS A TFTP SERVER

Due to variations between UNIX systems and individual configurations, this section provides only GUIDELINES for configuring a UNIX workstation to perform an image file download. The instructions include command examples, where appropriate. Bold lettering in examples indicates operator entry.

If unsure about how to properly configure a UNIX workstation

!using these guidelines, contact the Systems Administrator.

To set up a UNIX workstation, proceed as follows:

1.Edit the /etc/ethers file by adding the SEHI MAC address, followed by a unique name (e.g., 00:00:1d:32:0c:1b sehi).

2.Edit the /etc/hosts file by adding the SEHI MAC address and follow it with the same unique name used in step 1 (e.g., 00:00:1d:32:0c:1b sehi).

3.If the workstation already has a /tftpboot directory, confirm the TFTP setup of the workstation as follows:

Request a process status and grep for TFTP (e.g., unix% ps-aux grep tftp).

The following information represents a typical output:

The term tftp -s , located at the end of the root string, indicates TFTP is active. If TFTP is NOT running, only the grep process appears.

4.If the workstation does NOT have a /tftpboot directory, than create one (e.g., unix% mkdir tftpboot).

5.Ensure that the /tftpboot directory is not owned (e.g., unix% chown nobody tftpboot).
