tftp will not start.

I have setup nimol on a Fedora 9 machine. Nimol is installed and correctly configured and I have a client rs6000 (43p) declared in the dhcpd.conf file. all is running correctly and tftp is installed. I am monitoring /var/log/messages when I start the 43p and see the dhcp request come in and a reply with the correct address and subnet mask given as the reply. However tftp does not start and the 43p goes to SMS. Anyone know why tftp does not start please?

inets(3erl)						     Erlang Module Definition						       inets(3erl)

NAME
inets - The inets services API DESCRIPTION
This module provides the most basic API to the clients and servers, that are part of the Inets application, such as start and stop. COMMON DATA TYPES
Type definitions that are used more than once in this module: service() = ftpc | tftp | httpc | httpd property() = atom() EXPORTS
services() -> [{Service, Pid}] Types Service = service() Pid = pid() Returns a list of currently running services. Note: Services started as stand_alone will not be listed. services_info() -> [{Service, Pid, Info}] Types Service = service() Pid = pid() Info = [{Option, Value}] Option = property() Value = term() Returns a list of currently running services where each service is described by a [{Option, Value}] list. The information given in the list is specific for each service and it is probable that each service will have its own info function that gives you even more details about the service. service_names() -> [Service] Types Service = service() Returns a list of available service names. start() -> start(Type) -> ok | {error, Reason} Types Type = permanent | transient | temporary Starts the Inets application. Default type is temporary. See also application(3erl) stop() -> ok Stops the inets application. See also application(3erl) start(Service, ServiceConfig) -> {ok, Pid} | {error, Reason} start(Service, ServiceConfig, How) -> {ok, Pid} | {error, Reason} Types Service = service() ServiceConfig = [{Option, Value}] Option = property() Value = term() How = inets | stand_alone - default is inets Dynamically starts an inets service after the inets application has been started. Note: Dynamically started services will not be handled by application takeover and failover behavior when inets is run as a distributed applica- tion. Nor will they be automatically restarted when the inets application is restarted, but as long as the inets application is up and run- ning they will be supervised and may be soft code upgraded. Services started as stand_alone , e.i. the service is not started as part of the inets application, will lose all OTP application benefits such as soft upgrade. The "stand_alone-service" will be linked to the process that started it. In most cases some of the supervision functionality will still be in place and in some sense the calling process has now become the top supervisor. stop(Service, Reference) -> ok | {error, Reason} Types Service = service() | stand_alone Reference = pid() | term() - service specified reference Reason = term() Stops a started service of the inets application or takes down a "stand_alone-service" gracefully. When the stand_alone option is used in start, only the pid is a valid argument to stop. SEE ALSO
