Thanks for the info Neil.  My problem is that I'm seeing the read
requests come in, but there's never a reply.  The files are there and
publicly readable, but still nothing.  I'm going to try a different tftp
server when I get to work tomorrow.  Right now, I get four requests for
the .tlv, then two for the SEP**whatevah.cnf.xml then the CDP packets
and it starts over.  Anyway, if I ever get this going, I look forward to
trying those ringers on the link you mentioned.
