TFTP on SBL2e?
Posted: Thu Jan 13, 2011 8:40 am
NB Guys:
I am trying to get TFTP application file downloads working on the 5234 and SBL2e. I've configured the monitor (in setup) on both an SBL2e, and on a 5234 to look for a particular server TFTP address and the appropriate (platform-dependent) application file for each to download.
On the PC end, I think I've setup NBTFTP.exe to serve My5234App_APP.s19 files from a 5234 directory and MySBL2eApp_APP.s19 from a SBL2e directory. I've tried checking the box to enable writes from a specified directory, although that step does not seem to be required.
On the 5234, in the monitor, if I type "nfla" I can sometimes get the application to download, although it is very error prone and often needs a few retries by issuing the "nfla" command several times. Any idea why I seem to be getting these retries, errors and unsuccessful downloads? (This happens w/ my virus checker and firewall off too.)
On the SBL2e, in the monitior, in "setup" I can configure the TFTP address and file to look for, buit there does not seem to be a "nfla" command that can trigger the download like there is on the 5234. If not, how do I start the download?
Here's a screen shot of the NBTFTP.exe settings, and of SBL2e monitor commands (shown after typing "help"), as well as the setup configuration after specifying the TFTP address and file. What am I missing?
Thanks
