A good friend of mine gave me a NAS 1000 so that I could try a few things with it. In particular, I wanted to try PXE and diskless solutions with the installation files or disk data on the NAS server.
First I had some troubles starting the atftpd daemon because of user and group information which did not work. I should have checked the messages information right away... duh!!! It would have saved me a lot to time.
But then as I tried getting the data from my linux box using the fedora tftp client, it did not work. Well actually I am still not sure why it is not. Some routing errors obviously:
