Actually if there are links in that directory I've told to move/rename, these should be adjusted also as the full pathnames will become invalid as the directory they point to does not exist anymore.

Just to make sure this is documented as I've seen this error on many forums without a working solution:<br />
<br />
tftpd[]: [ID &nbsp;daemon.error] socket (delay): Protocol not supported<br />
<br />
The solution (or workaround) is to:<br />
<br />
1) Stop any network client boots.<br />
<br />
2) Kill the in.tftpd process on the boot server.<br />
<br />
3) Copy /tftpboot to a new dir e.g.:<br />
cp -r /tftpboot /mytftpboot<br />
<br />
4) Rename the original /tftpboot e.g.:<br />
mv /tftpboot /tftpboot_orig<br />
<br />
5) Update /etc/inetd.conf to &nbsp;point to the new /mytftpboot dir on the line starting with tftp.<br />
<br />
6) Restart inetd &lt;PID&gt;<br />
kill -HUP &lt;PID&gt;<br />
<br />
DONE, now you can network boot again.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
