Dear Managers,
I setup an installation server according to "Advanced Installation
Guide" and tried to install solaris 8 on an Ultra 5 over the net and
encountered problem and need your advise/help.
Both installation server and clinet were on the same subnet.
rarpd, tftpd and rpc.bootparamd were running on installation server:
root 5980 1 0 Oct 25 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/in.rarpd -a
root 1298 156 0 12:09:48 ? 0:00 in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
root 15913 1 0 Oct 24 ? 0:00 /usr/sbin/rpc.bootparamd
nobody 1299 1298 0 12:09:48 ? 0:00 in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
Message shown on server when snoop:
CLIENT -> INSTALL_SERVER TFTP Read "89BD2085" (octet)
INSTALL_SERVER -> CLIENT TFTP Data block 1 (512 bytes)
CLIENT -> INSTALL_SERVER TFTP Ack block 1
INSTALL_SERVER -> CLIENT TFTP Data block 2 (512 bytes)
CLIENT -> INSTALL_SERVER TFTP Ack block 2

CLIENT -> BROADCAST BPARAM C WHOAMI? 137.189.32.133
CLIENT -> BROADCAST BPARAM C WHOAMI? 137.189.32.133 (retransm
it)
....
Message shown on client:
Timeout waiting for ARP/RARP packet
The installation server was running NIS+ and nsswitch.conf had been
modified:
ethers: files nisplus
bootparams: files nisplus
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards
alan
