I am having problems getting the netboot for diskless workstations working correctly. I am somewhat of a linux n00b. But anyway I have one server and one client that uses PXE boot(I hope to add more clients later). I get past the step of DHCP and the IP and gateway flash one the screen. Then I get an error called TFTP-file not found which appears . And also 2 PXE-T01 file not found errors before that? I guess I have a problem with TFTP. When I do the /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart I get a message that xinetd starts OK.
Thanks for any help

I used the guide @ for setting up a diskless folding farm.

Does 'netstat -Ainet -an | grep 69' show that tftp is listening?

Do you have a /tftpboot directory with a boot file in it?
