Yes, that matches the default config file.


Poking around a bit more, here is a way to test TFTP from the command line.

This works from the server, but it would be a better test if you had a
Linux laptop or the like to plug into the terminals' private network and
test from there. If you'll remember from previous email, the files a
terminal fetches via TFTP are  (relative to /tftpboot/):

	/lts/pxe/pxelinux.0
	/lts/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/default
	/lts/pxe/vmlinuz.ltsp
	/lts/pxe/initramfs.gz


So all we have to do is use the command line tftp client to verify that
they can all indeed be fetched via TFTP:

 tftp -v 192.168.0.254 -c get /lts/pxe/pxelinux.0
 tftp -v 192.168.0.254 -c get /lts/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/default
 tftp -v 192.168.0.254 -c get /lts/pxe/vmlinuz.ltsp
 tftp -v 192.168.0.254 -c get /lts/pxe/initramfs.gz
