Adding a TFTP User for an HP 9000 Workstation

Follow the instructions in this section only if you are running Site Manager on an
HP 9000 workstation.
To add a TFTP user for the HP 9000, insert the following line in your /etc/passwd
file. Nortel Networks recommends that you use root (/) as the TFTP home
directory.
tftp:: <user_id> : <group_no.> ::/:/bin/false
For example:
tftp::510:20::/:/bin/false
Note: Nortel Networks recommends that you not use the System
Administration Manager (SAM) utility to add a TFTP user.

You must set up a static route for each path between the AN/ANH or ARN router
and the BootP server's next-hop router.
Note: You may want to specify a static route in a multihop environment or in
an environment using routing protocols such as RIP, where minor routing
update delays may extend the time it takes to Netboot.
