I have been using bootp from a Unixware 1.1.3 server to set the TCP address
on MSKermit 3.14. This is a little tedious when adding new PC, but it's
okay.
Now I have a PC that has been in use for Novell, with IPXODI, just like all
the others, but had not been used for Kermit.
It doesn't want to play with bootp...
The sequence I had been following was to manually set tcp addr to an unused
address, login to UNIX, run arp-a to find the hardware address, and edit my
bootptab.
Following that scenario with this machine leaves me with an in.bootpd
running, but MSKermit times out.
Is there debugging for bootp, like there is for the telnet session?
I recall seeing a script to assign TCP addresses for MSKermit, but I can't
locate that now. I thought I had saved it, but used bootp instead.
If I could find the script, I'd just use it. We don't care about the
addresses used, and only have two UNIX boxes on the net.
