|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility services boot requests from Hewlett-Packard workstations over a
|
|
local area network.
|
|
All boot files must reside in the boot file directory; further, if a
|
|
client supplies path information in its boot request, it will be silently
|
|
stripped away before processing.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
only responds to requests from machines listed in its configuration file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl a
|
|
Respond to boot requests from any machine.
|
|
The configuration file is ignored if this option is specified.
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Run
|
|
.Nm
|
|
in debug mode.
|
|
Packets sent and received are displayed to the terminal.
|
|
.It Fl i Ar interface
|
|
Service boot requests on specified interface.
|
|
If unspecified,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
searches the system interface list for the lowest numbered, configured
|
|
``up'' interface (excluding loopback).
|
|
Ties are broken by choosing the earliest match.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Specifying
|
|
.Ar config_file
|
|
on the command line causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to use a different configuration file from the default.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The configuration file is a text file where each line describes a particular
|
|
machine.
|
|
A line must start with a machine's Ethernet address followed by an optional
|
|
list of boot file names.
|
|
An Ethernet address is specified in hexadecimal with each of its six octets
|
|
separated by a colon.
|
|
The boot file names come from the boot file directory.
|
|
The ethernet address and boot file(s) must be separated by white-space
|
|
and/or comma characters.
|
|
A pound sign causes the remainder of a line to be ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Here is a sample configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
#
|
|
# ethernet addr boot file(s) comments
|
|
#
|
|
08:00:09:0:66:ad SYSHPBSD # snake (4.3BSD)
|
|
08:00:09:0:59:5b # vandy (anything)
|
|
8::9:1:C6:75 SYSHPBSD,SYSHPUX # jaguar (either)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility logs status and error messages via
|
|
.Xr syslog 3 .
|
|
A startup message is always logged, and in the case of fatal errors (or
|
|
deadly signals) a message is logged announcing the server's termination.
|
|
In general, a non-fatal error is handled by ignoring the event that caused
|
|
it (e.g.\& an invalid Ethernet address in the config file causes that line
|
|
to be invalidated).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following signals have the specified effect when sent to the server
|
|
process using the
|
|
.Xr kill 1
|
|
command:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width SIGUSR1 -offset xxxxxxxx
|
|
.It SIGHUP
|
|
Drop all active connections and reconfigure.
|
|
.It SIGUSR1
|
|
Turn on debugging, do nothing if already on.
|
|
.It SIGUSR2
|
|
Turn off debugging, do nothing if already off.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
If multiple servers are started on the same interface, each will receive
|
|
and respond to the same boot packets.
