Directed TFTP Problems

Improperly Configured TFTP Server
If your TFTP server host operating system uses case-sensitive file names, be sure that the
filenames of the access server load images match the name the access server requests via
TFTP. Note that the access server will typically request a file by name only, with no path
or file extension information.
Use the restricted mode of TFTP daemon on UNIX systems with the restricted file system
pointing to the directory in which the access server load images exist. In the access server
ROM Mini-Monitor, you may specify a long pathname for the load image (e.g.
/usr/tftpboot/MNENG2). When you define the load image name in access server
NVRAM, you are restricted to 9 characters. While it is possible to use a quoted string to
provide a path name, the length is restrictive (e.g., /u/t/MNENG2 is too long.)
