I have found the reason. My host PC has 2 ethernet cards, and the tftp server is installed on the eth0 which ip is 192.168.0.11.
Thank you for your reply!

Another suggestion: from a (linux) box command line, tftp to your server and verify that it works. Your message is indicating that your server is 192.168.4.1 and the file you are trying to get is /tftpboot/u-boot.bin so do the following (I'm typing this from memory, so it may not be quite right)...
$ tftp 192.168.4.1 tftp> get /tftpboot/u-boot.bin
Sorry but after I typed tftp 192.168.4.1, it came up with message looks
like
get uImage froam tftp server automatically.
Getting TFTP to work (i.e. properly configured) usually solves the problem in my experience.

Hi Li,
You result description ment nothing to me. Please cut & paste real messages. Are you typing "tftp 192.168.4.1" from your _host_ (linux server) command line?
OK, I ran a real instance on my home box (Debian 3.1 x86) vanbaren@dellserver:~$ uname -a Linux dellserver.lan 2.4.27-050821 #17 SMP Sun Aug 21 22:46:01 EDT 2005 i686 GNU/Linux

I was a little surprised that the tftp "get" worked with the /tftpboot full path. On a different box that I used (RH), it is configured as "-s /tftpboot" for the option (rather than "/tftpboot") so tftpd treats paths as relative to /tftpboot and thus the get "/tftpboot/foo" won't work because there is no /tftpboot/tftpboot/foo on the server. This should not be your problem since your configuration matches mine.
