Oh right... Misread and therefore misunderstood what you were trying to do.

I don't think the NICs are the problem. Tftp works fine when a thin client tries to tftp-get a file from a fat box. In this thread: http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2873158 Diego wrote that all it takes to make a PXES thin client into a tftp server is to set LOCAL_TFTPD_ENABLED=1 in its conf file, but obviously I miss something because my thin client does not become a tftp server. It would be a pity to miss such an efficient tftp solution! Galina. Tim Bates <[email protected]> wrote: Wasn't there a dodgy PXE implementation on early Intel cards that did something like that? It would get DHCP response try to connect to TFTP then say timed out even though the TFTP server responded... Something like that anyway. What network cards are you using? What version number do they say they have for PXE when they attempt to boot?
