Shots in the dark:

- - You do have administrative permissions and surely no other bootp
daemon running, right? :)

- - Did you configure tftpd32 to listen just on the interface relevant in
your setup (see [1] for more details...)?

- - Do you have any other tools in place that probably are listening on
the bootp ports already? Check netstat -anb to see what happens.


Cheers,
Kris
