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.
