Description John Newbigin 2013-07-30 01:45:35 EDT 
Description of problem:
syslinux-tftpboot installs files into /tftpboot but tftp-server creates and configures /var/lib/tftpboot

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
syslinux-tftpboot-4.02-8.el6.x86_64
tftp-server-0.49-7.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install tftp-server syslinux-tftpboot
2. chkconfig tftp on
3. tftp localhost -c get pxelinux.0

Actual results:
Error code 1: File not found


Expected results:
(success)

Additional info:
I can't find any specific answers in the LSB or FHS but it seems that /var/lib/tftpboot has been adopted as the correct place for tftp files.

I don't know what selinux might permit.

Comment 3 Jan Stodola 2014-09-03 08:18:40 EDT 
Reproduced with syslinux-tftpboot-4.02-8.el6, retested with syslinux-tftpboot-4.04-3.el6.

All files from syslinux-tftpboot are stored in /var/lib/tftpboot/, and getting pxelinux.0 from tftp works fine with default configuration.

Moving to VERIFIED.
