Subject: ltsp-server: PXE file fails to be loaded

Date: Sun, 20 Nov 2011 13:29:15 +0100

Package: ltsp-server

Version: 5.2.16-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

after building the ltsp client with ltsp-build-client, the client is unabled to load the "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0" file via tftpd-hpa.

I tested it manualy :

$ tftp localhost 69 -c get /ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0
Error code 0: Permission denied


I solved the problem by changing the UID and the GID of the ltsp directory in /srv/tftp/ :

$ sudo chown -R tftp.tftp /srv/tftp/ltsp/

And now, it works fine.
But it should be done by the ltsp-build-client script directly.

Thanks.

This is a somewhat dangerous thing to do, as the tftp user is then able to
change files in the tftp dir... "chmod -R +r /srv/tftp/ltsp" would be a bit
safer.

I was unable to reproduce this issue with any recent version of LTSP or
tftpd-hpa.

Resolving for now, please reopen if you can still reproduce the problem.
