When the code is compiled with "-fstack-protector-strong -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2", everytime ftpfd is asked for a non existent file, it crashes with the following error:
*** buffer overflow detected ***: Aborted This seems to be a bug/feature of gcc. A bug has been open on their bugzilla, and also inetutils have been posted with the proposed patch. Without this patch, pxelinux fails to boot because it keeps asking the server for the pxelinux.cfg/00-01-02-03-04 and never jumps to /default.
