PyBootd Description

Simplified BOOTP/DHCP/PXE/TFTP serverBOOTP PyBootd is a daemon supporting a subset of the BOOTP, PXE, DHCP and TFTP protocols, with some handy extensions.One of its main goals is to provide a simple solution to boot up any PXE-enabled personal computer, with no other tool required but a standard Python installation.Pybootd can be used for any network boot up, or to install an OS without any physical support such as a USB key or a CD/DVD.Permissions- DHCP protocol requires the daemon to listen on port 67.- TFTP protocol requires the daemon to listen on port 69.As these ports are within the server's range (< 1024), the superuser privileges are required on Unix hosts (Linux, Mac OS X, ...) to start up these daemons.
