What were you trying to do?
Run tftp as part of a script to check if tether accounts have
been enabled.
What's wrong:
tftp dumps core if the file to be retrieved is non-existant.
This is pretty anti-social.
This behaviour occurs on Decstations, Suns, and SGIs.
What should have happened:
tftp should exit with an error message and non-zero status,
but not dump core.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
