I tried the tftp service and got this in the log:

dnsmasq[26150]: DHCPDISCOVER(eth0.58) 00:11:2f:84:22:cc 
dnsmasq[26150]: DHCPOFFER(eth0.58) 192.168.58.146 00:11:2f:84:22:cc 
dnsmasq[26150]: DHCPREQUEST(eth0.58) 192.168.58.146 00:11:2f:84:22:cc 
dnsmasq[26150]: Ignoring DHCP host name ankarana.fisica.ufpr.br because it has an illegal domain part
???
dnsmasq[26150]: DHCPACK(eth0.58) 192.168.58.146 00:11:2f:84:22:cc 
dnsmasq[26150]: TFTP sent /var/remoteboot/pxelinux.0 to 192.168.58.146
dnsmasq[26150]: TFTP error 0 TFTP Aborted received from 192.168.58.146
dnsmasq[26150]: TFTP failed sending /var/remoteboot/pxelinux.0 to 192.168.58.146
???
dnsmasq[26150]: TFTP sent /var/remoteboot/pxelinux.0 to 192.168.58.146
dnsmasq[26150]: TFTP sent /var/remoteboot/pxelinux.cfg/...

Two questions: the first is the illegal domain nonsense. It has
nothing to do with tftp, I get it since 2.35. Why is it saying this?
All machines are defined in the addn-hosts file; the domain is not
sent by dhcp, it's explicitly removed.

Second, the tftp error is repeatable, which makes it unlikely to be a
hardware problem. What could cause it?
