Perhaps mine were never set or perhaps we have different models. The only issue I ever had was finding the right stuff to stick into the tftp repository to feed it when it was coming up. I am pretty sure I was running it off of a SPARCstation of whatever flavor I owned at the time, so once I stumbled across what I needed, I had to incrementally check the tftp logs to see what was being asked for and get it in the right place. I noodled around with a few apps from the Sun, then put it away since ISTR there were some warts with modern apps like Netscape and an ancient X term. It mostly worked, but I was better off logging into the console (in the same room). Sorry I don't have specifics to quote you, but if you want to send me the model number of what you have off-list, I'll check it against what I have and see if they are even the same. -ethan
