Re: tftpd
Did you create "tftpboot" in the root directory and give appropriate
permissions? If not then do so and restart inetd by issuing "inetd stop"
then "inetd start".
The tftp deamon uses /tftpboot directory when transfering files to and from
the server/workstation. The only thing you should have to do is uncoment
the tftp line in inetd.conf in the etc directory. tftp waits in the
background
for a request and will only be active when a request is received. Once
the processes completes, tftp stops. If want to ensure that the inetd process
is running simply issue "reboot" as root and your machine will reboot.
If you enter "ps -ef | grep tftp" you will not see it active UNLESS you are
actually transfering files. Then and ONLY then will you see the tftp process.
