Please make certain that this entry exists and that it is not marked as a comment (the # -character
indicates a comment line).
The used port numbers and protocols of the services are determined in
/etc/services
. Please
make sure that the file contains the following lines:
bootps 67/udp # bootp server
bootpc 68/udp # bootp client
If you changed the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, a signal 1 (HUP) must be sent to
inetd
so that this
process re-reads the configuration file
/etc/inetd.conf
. The process ID of
inetd
is located in
the first column of the following command:
# ps -e | grep inetd
Now send the signal 1 to the process
inetd
:
# kill -1 <PID of inetd>
The adaptation of the BOOTP service to the print server Host is finished.
7.3.4 Boot Protocol RARP
In order to use the RARP boot protocol RARP follow the description in this chapter step by step.
Updating the /etc/rarp.cf File
If the RARP service is installed on your system either the
/etc/ethers
file or the
/etc/rarpd.cf
file has to be updated. Which file should be supplemented depends on the
implementation of the RARP service in your UNIX system. Please read the manual page about
rarpd
.
Please insert a line in the RARP configuration file
/etc/rarpd.cf
containing the allocation of the
Internet address to the hardware address of the print server.
Syntax:
<Internet address> <Hardware address>
Example:
192.0.0.123 00:c0:eb:00:01:ff
Updating the /etc/ethers File
Please insert a line into the
/etc/ethers file
containing the allocation of the hardware address
to the hostname of the print server.
Syntax:
<Hardware address> <Hostname>
Example:
00:c0:eb:00:01:ff IC0001FF
Now the adaptation of the RARP service to the print server host is completed. Please check whether
rarpd
will be automatically started after a system boot or not.
