Great, is is actual Geert
By the way, I prefer 'stappers', it goes back to the mid 1990
when I on the same mailinglist as Geert Uyterhoeven.
With 'stappers' it is unambiguous which Geert is meant.
Stappers is also my IRC nickname and Debian account name.

Over here I can't reproduce the error when the TFTP server is standalone.
Still it is a good thing try how the TFTP server behaves under inetd.
Because netbooting SUNs is a working thing, I'm curious what blocks it
this time. Could it be firewall software on the TFTP server?
