BOOTPARAMD(8) BSD System Manager’s Manual BOOTPARAMD(8)

NAME

bootparamd — boot parameter server

SYNOPSIS

rpc.bootparamd [−d] [−s] [−r router] [−f file]

DESCRIPTION

bootparamd is a server process that provides information to diskless clients necessary for booting. It consults the /etc/bootparams file to find the information it needs.

This version will allow the use of aliases on the hostname in the /etc/bootparams file. The returned hostname to the whoami request done by the booting client will be the name that appears in /etc/bootparams and not the canonical name. In this way you can keep the answer short enough so that machines that cannot handle long hostnames won’t fail during boot.

OPTIONS
−d

Display debugging information.

−s

Log the debugging information to syslog.

−r router

The default router (a machine or an IP-address). This defaults to the machine running the server.

−f file

The file to use as boot parameter file instead of /etc/bootparams.

FILES

/etc/bootparams

BUGS

You may find the syslog loggings too verbose.
