2175.1 | It works for me. | WEODOM::HUDSON | save trees, don't read manuals | Wed Apr 05 1995 21:07 | 21 |
| Today I installed NetRider specifically so I could copy DECbrouter 90
configurations to my PC. This eventually worked. Some things I found
that may be helpful to check:
* The TFTP client (in this case a DECbrouter) must be set up as a
server under the Config pulldown menu. Both the h/w and IP addresses
are required.
* The filename used must correspond to a file that must already exist in
the \NETRIDER\LOAD directory.
* I found that the TFTP server could not translate a long (ie. longer
than DOS's 8.3) filename to a DOS-compatible one, even though it
can do this for DECserver dumps, so the filename referenced by they
TFTP client had to be short.
I hope this is useful input.

2175.2 | Dump is there | NETCAD::FORINO | | Thu Apr 06 1995 11:04 | 10 |
| There is dump capability in the NetRider TFTP Server. What type of
device are you dumping? If the device gives a dump file name that is
not DOS compatible, you can set up a translation table in the .INI
file to a DOS compatible file name. I believe this is all explained
in the online help. The dump file will end up in the directory where
the TFTP loader resides.
Let us know if you still have problems.

2175.3 | Everything is set up.......?? | SCCAT::MILLER | | Thu Apr 06 1995 12:51 | 13 |
| Right now, I'm testing the capability using tftp on a DECstation 5000
running Ultrix 4.4. When I do a "get" from the DECstation, the PC (a
425SE Laptop) gives me the file I ask for (from the netrider\load
directory). When I do a "put" of a dos name-compatible file (that
already exists in netrider\load), I get "Error code 2: File access
violation" on the DECstation (the same type of message that a Cisco
4000 gave me earlier this week when I tried to dump a config file to
it). The tftp request/response counters increment, the file access
date/time changes on the laptop, but no data is transferred. It just
sounds like, even though the file is marked as write-access, it isn't.
The server MAC/IP is configured for the DECstation.
Kinda puzzling........

2175.4 | Some clarification.... | SCCAT::MILLER | | Thu Apr 06 1995 12:58 | 3 |
| As a clarification, the Cisco 4000 gave me the error message when I
tried to dump its config file to the laptop, the same basic thing I'm
trying to do with the DECstation.

| RE: .various
Check out note 122.4 in the TOOK::NETRIDER (hit KP7) conference, regarding
problems with TFTP dumps. This might answer your problems.

2175.8 | It's OK, BUT....... | SCCAT::MILLER | | Thu May 25 1995 12:13 | 3 |
| Yes, it works fine with restricted set to 1. HOWEVER, remember to set
it back to 0 to run Hubloader (or put ALL the firmware file names in
the config files list)!

2175.9 | LOADER.INI entry error | ZPOVC::PARRYCHUA | Parry Chua @ZPO, 65-3306311 | Wed Jun 28 1995 05:35 | 9 |
| I have fun working with the DUMP for the DECservers and it was the
LOADER.INI entry error.
For example, the dump file entry WW_08002bxxxxxx.DUMP is wrong and
should say WW08002bxxxxxx while xxxxxx is the last 6 hex address for
the DECservers.
