One iux server support two network client issue


My server is A class, and only have one lan card which I used for s/w load to public network 15.104.**.**, then I add another lan card for support private 10.**.**.** s/w load.
After I config the network, it seems that the network could work properly.
Then I change the instl_adm -d content and all the configuration files's ip add to the new private ip address. I also add the private client mac add to bootptab file. At client side, do "sea lan" also could find the server. then boot from this server, it seems hang at....
> bo lan
.....
system ip 10.0.4.225
server ip 10.0.5.2
.....

Boot
:lan(0/0/0/0:0)/boot/WINSTALL
11149312+1822808+2605720 Start 0x1ff568
alloc_pdc_pages: Relocating PDC from 0xf0f0000000 to 0x3fb00000

*****

Then I check the /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log file:

Feb 7 15:18:03 ssrvr214 tftpd[1741]: Transfer timed out
Feb 7 15:25:21 ssrvr214 tftpd[1753]: Transfer timed out
Feb 7 15:31:01 ssrvr214 tftpd[1681]: Timeout (no requests in 10 minutes)

Is there any other configuration need to set up?

try changing ftpd -R -T values through /etc/inetd.conf and check. These values will basically change time for packet and connection timeout values.

check man page for ftpd.

post the results.

Re: One iux server support two network client issue

You're almost there. Here is a snippet from a support call.

To look for the IP address check the instl_adm :

instl_adm -d > /tmp/cfg
vi /tmp/cfg
instl_adm -f /tmp/cfg


This will let you change the configuration to your main NIC card. It's done on the server. I actually did this so long ago, I forgot and had to have HP Support remind me about this.

When you edit the /tmp/cfg file or whatever you call it, make sure the IP address is correct, along with the netmask. It should match the main values of /etc/rc.config.d/netconf

If you have a second NIC interface(it would appear not), you can push the Ignite through there, but you'll need to make that the primary LAN card in the Ignite configuration and that means you have to change the configuration after the push(or pull).

Post any further questions.

Re: One iux server support two network client issue


Thanks for your fast reply:

in /etc/inetd.conf file:
I use tftpd -R10 -T260, these parameters are used in slower network before, no problem. Right now I am using private network, should be fast.

I double checked the instl_adm -d content,which match the /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

Right now I am using the second lan card, it seems that the server is not talking with it.

Steven, how to push the Ignite through the second NIC infterface, and what's the Ignite configuration file? You mean "instl_adm -d" ?
And it only include the second lan information, do I need to add the pri lan information also? Thanks.
