BOOTPEF(8)

NAME

     bootpef -- BOOTP Extension File compiler

SYNOPSIS

     bootpef [-c chdir-path] [-d debug-level] [-f config-file]
	     [client-name ...]

DESCRIPTION

     The bootpef utility builds the Extension Path files described by RFC 1497
     (tag 18).	If any client-name arguments are specified, then bootpef com-
     piles the extension files for only those clients.

OPTIONS

     -c chdir-path
	     Sets the current directory used by bootpef while creating exten-
	     sion files.  This is useful when the extension file names are
	     specified as relative pathnames, and bootpef needs to use the
	     same current directory as the TFTP server (typically /tftpboot).

     -d debug-level
	     Sets the debug-level variable that controls the amount of debug-
	     ging messages generated.  For example, -d 4 will set the debug-
	     ging level to 4.

     -f config-file
	     Set the name of the config file that specifies the option data to
	     be sent to each client.
