Hi, currently, CRUX comes with a TFTP daemon from the iputils package. The manpage says: "It is distributed with iputils mostly as good demo of an interesting feature (MSG_CONFIRM) allowing to boot long images by dumb clients not answering ARP requests until they are finally booted. However, this is full functional and can be used in production." Unfortunately, this version of tftpd only works in combination with inetd. Which is a major annoyance to me, because I don't even have inetd running :) Juergen mentioned that the inetutils package also came with a tftpd, but that one also only works together with inetd. I'd like to propose to change core/iputils so that it doesn't install tftp and tftpd, and instead ask users to install the tftp-hpa port. hpa's tftpd can run both with and without inetd and has a load of other features that I have no idea about ;) tftp-hpa currently lives in contrib, but Thomas is willing to move it to opt if we decide to go ahead with this. Opinions? Regards, Tilman -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting.
