Check the tftp options for verbose flags. The granularity of gdb is finer than most connection problems. tftp in busybox may be a subset of stand alone tftp. fire it up and see what "help" and other commands tell you. As always tftp has two parts. Near and far. Both the server and the client have verbos the server may log authentication or other errors. It would help to run standalone tftp on a laptop and also install busybox in a scratch location to see if there are differences you care about. As a security risk tftp is full of troubles so firewalls and switches can drop traffic. gdb is too fine. If you are building it add classic print statements to the verbose mode. Two programs, two firewalls, is the network local or wild west big with multiple hops and firewalls. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
