No such file or directory I'm not sure what this and can't seem to find anything in the settings reflecting something even close to it, so I'm either looking this up in the wrong location or it's nothing to worrry about. I'm getting an error every few minutes. Any ideas?

By default a windows install of Netsight includes a TFTPD, SNMPTrapD, Syslogd and a bootpd application.<BR /> A typical install will not only install all of these side apps, but also enable them. <BR /> <BR /> Bootp port number is the same used for DHCP, so you are likely seeing local DHCP requests on the network (because they are broadcast) hit the bootpd process. We don't actually do anything with them....but they are listed in the syslog tab. Easiest way to correct this issue would be to disable the bootpd process on the Netsight server. (again assuming this is windows) If you are on the server itself, there is a services icon in the system tray. From there you can disable the bootpd process. This should help you determine if this is indeed your issue.<BR /> <BR /> If this does correct the issue, I think you need to go into Netsight, tools, options, there should be a place to uncheck bootpd as normally it will start up every time you restart the server.<BR /> <BR /> Chris Thu, 19 Dec 2013 04:06:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16443#M311 Anonymous 2013-12-19T04:06:00Z https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16444#M312 Another option is to go to your services filter under the Administrator Tools folder and select Netsight BootP Service and then select startup type and change tpo disable<BR /> Jason<BR /> Thu, 19 Dec 2013 04:06:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16444#M312 Jason_Parker 2013-12-19T04:06:00Z https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16445#M313 Hi Fritz, did Chris resolve your issue? If no, perhaps you can give us a little more information about your configuration? Thank you!

This process is listening on Bootp/DHCP ports and is what's triggering the messages being displayed.<BR /> <BR /> Once the bootpd process has been disabled, the messages should no longer be displayed.<BR /> <BR /> Chris Fri, 03 Jan 2014 21:05:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16447#M315 Anonymous 2014-01-03T21:05:00Z https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/my-syslog-i-keep-receiving-an-error-from-my-netatlas-stating/m-p/16448#M316 Chris,<BR /> Is there any procedure to disable the bootpd process NetSight server?
