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.
The mii-tool output will show you the duplex setting ("negotiated
100baseTx-FD" from above tells you that it is set to auto, and it has
decided on 100Mbit-Full Duplex).
Are you seeing it timeout right away, or are there some bytes
transferred, then times out?
I am not seeing any bytes transferred. The time out is after the default 25 sec.
I take it that you have checked for errors/duplex problems on both
machines (as well as selinux/iptables)? What about tcpwrappers?
/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny are blank?
Other than ifconfig how can I check for errors/duplex problems? I am not seeing any errors
on other services running on either box but am willing to dig further.
Neither box has selinux or iptables enabled. tcpwrappers is utilized for tftp but both
hosts.allow & hosts.deny are empty. When I look a /var/log/secure it shows START: tftp
pid=8144 from=192.168.242.3, which is as expected.
I am going to increase the logging level for tftpd and see what I get.
I really appreciate all the helpful suggestions from this mailing list, thanks to everyone.
