Oh yeah - love your idea :-)
So just to clarify - I take it the Cisco phones (at least the 7940) are
supposed to be run with a tftp server available at all time - not only
during the initial configuration? Just making sure I didn't miss
something obvious in the documentation. Can somebody confirm please.
It's just that the Grandstream phones I use can load firmware and
configs over http or tftp - but they are happy to work without it once
they are configured.

Hi James,
Thanks for the reply. I'm not concerned about performance. But I've
learned that every extra daemon software on a server comes with its
security caveats. I would feel much better about not having another one
to worry about and keep an eye on.

Hi all,
Sorry for posting here - but I figured there are many people with
Cisco IP phones here - and I use them with Asterisk :-)
I have a couple of Cisco 7940 phones. I've loaded the SIP firmware OK,
loaded the SIP configuration files OK, they work with Asterisk just fine.
My question is - will I have to keep on running the tftp server for
them for ever and ever? Isn't there any option for them to just use
the settings they have already loaded form the tftp server - so that I
can kill tftpd on my server machine? I tried doing that, and then the
phones stop booting, going in a loop looking for the tftpd server.
It seems a bit pointless, having to run the tftpd daemon all the time
- although I've already loaded the firmware and configurations I want.
Thank you,
Sebastian
