Try looking in /var/log/syslog; that is where my tftp requests show up. I
can't really help with the entry in /etc/inetd.conf since I use
/etc/xinetd.conf. Here are my entries for LTSP in xinetd.conf:

service bootps
{
        socket_type     =3D dgram
        protocol        =3D udp
        wait            =3D yes
        user            =3D root
        server          =3D /usr/sbin/bootpd
        server_args     =3D -i -t 120
}

service tftp
 {
        socket_type     =3D dgram
        protocol        =3D udp
        wait            =3D yes
        user            =3D root
        server          =3D /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
        server_args     =3D -s /tftpboot
        disable         =3D no
         }
--=20

Yes that helped. TFTP is not running properly. the DHCP lines show in 
syslog & the fact that it can't find tftp is also shown.

Sadly xinet looks very different from inet so I'll have to follow up that.

Many thanks for your help

Steve
