tftp keeps timing out when I try to transfer files.  I intend to use
tftp with G4U to clone
a standard workstation. I am testing it between two Dell poweredge
servers running CentOS
4.3.  "chkconfig --list |grep tftp" shows tftp up and running on both
boxes.
How are the transfer speeds when it is actually running? Do you see many
dropped pkts when running other transfer protocols?

It kinda sounds like a general network problem to me...if you run:
  ifconfig -a
ifconfig -a shows errors: 0 dropped: 0 overruns: 0 for both RX & TX packets


Do you see many errors? If you do..run this:
  mii-tool

mii-tool shows "eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD flow-control, link ok


What is the duplex setting? Does it match what is on the other side
(switch, or system if it is a cross-over cable) What is the link between
the two systems? 100Mbit LAN, or are you going over a router or
something?

I am not sure about the duplex setting ifconfig -a is not reporting it so I have assumed it to be auto. It is a straight LAN connection not going through any routers with only a switch between the boxes.
