-This is an enhanced version of the CMU BOOTP server which was derived
-from the original BOOTP server created by Bill Croft at Stanford.
-This version merges most of the enhancements and bug-fixes from the
-NetBSD, Columbia, and other versions.
-
-New features in version 2.4 include:
-
- Added a simple BOOTP gateway program: bootpgw
- Allow host name anywhere IP address is expected.
- Automatically lookup the IP address when the name of a
- bootptab entry is a valid hostname.
- (Dummy entries names should start with '.')
- Merged changes from NetBSD and Columbia versions.
- Merged changes for Solaris-2.X and SVR4 systems.
- Combined bootptest into the bootp release.
- Merged tag 18 support (:ef=...:) from Jason Zions.
- Use :ef=extension_file_name: and make the
- extension files for all clients using bootpef.
- Merged HP compatibility (:ra=...:) from David R Linn.
- Allows you to override the reply address.
- (i.e. send the reply to a broadcast address)
- Add /etc/ethers support for NetBSD.
- More systems support getether (Ultrix, OSF, NetBSD)
- Added RFC 1533 tags 40,41,42
- :yd=<NIS domain>:ys=<NIS server>:nt=<NTP server>:
- ConvOldTab.sh to convert old (1.1) bootptab to new format.
- Permits extended-length replies with more option data.
-
-Problems fixed in this version:
-
- Fixed references to free host structures.
- (used to cause core dump on Solaris)
- Remove change that added null terminator to string options.
- (this annoyed some clients...)
- Add missing symbols to dump routine, fix order.
- Works (again) with no -DSYSLOGD defined.
- Fixed several more NULL references in readfile.
- Added proper length checks to option insertions.
- Fixed bootptest IP address printing.
- Cleaned-up signed/unsigned and byteorder bugs.
- Added SVR4/Streams support to getif and getether
- Removed extra newlines in syslog messages.
- Specify facility code when calling syslog(3)
- When lookup_hwa fails, assume numeric HW address.
-
-Systems on which I have seen this code work:
- SunOS 4.X (Solaris 1.X)
- SunOS 5.X (Solaris 2.X)
- System V/386 Rel. 4.0
-
-Systems on which others say this code works:
- CDC EP/IX (1.4.3, 2.1.1)
- DEC Ultrix (4.2, 4.3)
- NetBSD (Current-8/94)
- OSF/1 (DEC Alpha CPU)
