Creating Links
You must create a symbolic link for every pathname you specify in the bootptab
file. For example, to set up the symbolic links for the /tftpboot path, use the
following procedure:
1.
Log in to your UNIX workstation as
root
.
2.
Enter the following commands:
cd tftpboot
ln -s . usr
ln -s . tftpboot
Adding a TFTP User for an HP 9000
Follow the instructions in this section only if you are using an HP 9000 as the Site
Manager workstation.
To add a TFTP user for the HP 9000, enter a line with the following syntax in your
/etc/passwd file. We recommend that you use root (/) as the TFTP home directory.
tftp::
<user_id>:<group_no.>
::/:/bin/false
For example:
tftp::510:20::/:/bin/false
Caution:
Do not insert a slash (/) in the
cd tftpboot
command; a symbolic
link cannot contain references to directories above the directory specified in
the
tftpd
command line. Use the
-s
flag to provide additional security to your
network. (This flag restricts TFTPD access to a specified directory.)
Note:
We recommend that you not use the System Administration Manager
(SAM) utility as an alternative to editing the /etc/passwd file.
