Thanks! tim -- I think the *standard* port for TFTP is 69. You may have configured your server to use a different port... Assuming the default INPUT policy on your iptables configuration is "deny", typing the following at the command prompt, as root, will insert a rule allowing (and accepting) tftp on port 69: iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 69 -j ACCEPT ...this will enable tftp on port 69 from all network interfaces. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
