If the bootpd command line does not exist in your /etc/inetd.conf
Þle, you need to add it. To verify that the bootpd startup
command is in the Þle, type:

grep bootpd /etc/inetd.conf

If the bootpd startup command is in the Þle, the following line is
displayed:

bootps dgram udp wait root /etc/bootpd bootpd

Verify that bootpd resides where it is speciÞed in /etc/inetd.conf.
For the preceding examples, bootpd would be located in /etc. If
there is a mismatch between the actual location and the speciÞed
location, either move the bootpd binary or change the
/etc/inetd.conf Þle.

3.

The port numbers for BOOTP listening and replying must be set in
the /etc/services Þle. If they are not set, edit the Þle and add them.
To verify that the ports are set in the Þle, type:

grep bootp /etc/services

If the ports are set in the Þle, the following line is displayed:

bootps 67/udp

bootpc 68/udp
