RE: [Sheflug] Installing tftp server

["Chris Johnson" <chris [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I turned off the firewall and the TFTP server started up and the Thin client
was able to see it.  This leaves 2 problems.

1) the thin client is now reporting "file not found" for the file:
vmlinus-2.4.21-ltsp-1
This file does exist on my server (192.168.100.111) in the folder
/tftpboot/lts/
The thin client is looking at
192.168.100.111:tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.21-ltsp-1
The dhcpd.conf file is set to point at /lts/vmlinuz-2.4.21-ltsp-1
The tftp daemon is set with a /tftpboot prefix for its file directory so it
should be able to see the file.  I can only think its a rights/permissions
issue.  However being a newbie this is where I get stuck.  Any suggestions
welcome currently file is -rw-r--r--

Should I CHMOD it and if so what should I CHMOD it to (I'm hoping not to
have to resort to trial and error on this one)?

2) I want to turn the firewall back on.  I'm using the standard YAsT enabled
Suse 8.2 firewall and I did have port 69 in the list of permitted ports(I
thought 69 was the TFTP port) when TFTP didn't work before.  Any suggestions
as to where I should start to look to permit tftp through my firewall?
