Thanks for another great suggestion! I'm going to try that, just to see how a "normative" tftp client implementation does things, but actually, after I posted last night, I found the stupid programming error that was keeping my code from working (and now it is all working OK). Basically, in the tftp packet headers I had just forgotten to put the block number into proper network byte order. Once I fixed that silly programming error, my trivial tftp client worked perfectly. (You know, it's funny, I don't know what other people's experiences have been, but for me, in about 35 years of programming I've found that about 95% of all buugs in any code I've ever developed or worked on have been due to just silly small programming errors. It's very rare to see any program go haywire because of fundamental underlying conceptual problems. It's almost always just something small and silly.)
