tcpwrappers & tftpd

Hi All,

I have a solaris 8 box, patched with latest patches and TCPwrappers
installed.

tftpd is being controlled by tcpd. My problem is when I try to do a tftp
get from a pc client of a file in /tcpdboot on the solaris box to test
the functionality of tftpd (under tcpwrappers).

The error message which I get on the PC client is: "Error on Server:
Access Violation".

I know that tcpwrappers works fine because tcpdmatch using hosts.allow
and my windows client IP come back ok (allowed) and a tcpdump port 69
gives me the connections coming in from the pc client, although i ge 5
datagrams then the whole connection bails out.

Does anyone know why this is so, ie why my tftp get doesn't work. i've
also tried it using a tftp put from win client -> solaris box.

I will summarise.

TIA,

Regards

dan cave
