Hi:

Edit the /etc/inetd.conf file and commant the line
#bootps dgram udp wait root /usr/lbin/bootpd bootpd
and then run inetd -c. The messages will stop.

Thanks

Hi,

Please, remember to assign points to the forumers that have helped you, it's easy and fast for you, and the way to be grateful for their efforts.

Kind regards,

by doing this I will not be able to use bootptab for xterminals.

Hi,

Maybe a lower debug level could help.
Extracted from "man bootpd":

"The -d option sets the verbosity level (1-3) of the logging emitted by the daemon via syslog (see syslog(3C))."

Kind regards,
Zigor

What do you mean by xterminals?
