Hi, I've just installed tftp and tftpd package by apt-get. But, I could not see the tftp server running. Actually, I could not figure out where is the tftp script. In FC6, the tftp script is in xinit.d. In Debian, there is not xinit.d.
I have had good results by installing the tftpd-hpa package. You can run it from either inetd or standalone. For running the standalone version you need to disable it in /etc/inetd.conf and set the relevant flag to "yes" in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
How can I check whether the tftp server is running or not? And, if not, which command I can call to run the tftp server?
Install some tftp client (say tftp-hpa), then try getting a file from the machine:
== $ tftp localhost tftp> get somefile ==If you get an error almost immediately saying the file could not be found, that means the server is running :)
