[Bug 573975] Re: pxe image fails to boot: "Forbidden directory"

[Sam Smith]

Upgraded server from 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS on 8/21/2010.  Server was
running LTSP with 8.04.  Same issue with clients not able to access tftp
directory.  The fix suggested by Inno to change the directory and add "
--secure" worked (THANK YOU!):

# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
#TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
#TFTP_OPTIONS=""
TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure" 

Changed the two lines and issued "sudo ltsp-update-kernels" plus "sudo
restart tftpd-hpa".

Since it just happened, I would consider it still a bug in the upgrade
process for systems with LTSP.
