in.tftpd, tftpd — Internet Trivial File Transfer Protocol Server

Synopsis

/usr/sbin/in.tftpd [-s][homedir]

Description

The in.tftpd daemon is a server that supports the Internet Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). This server is normally started by inetd(1M) and operates at the port indicated in the tftp Internet service description in the /etc/inetd.conf file. The default entry for in.tftpd in /etc/inetd.conf is commented out, as shown below.

#
# Tftp service is provided primarily for booting.  Most sites run this
# only on machines acting as "boot servers."
#
#tftp  dgram  udp6 wait  root  usr/sbin/in.tftpd in.tftpd -s /tftpboot
#

To make in.tftpd operational, delete the comment character from the tftp line. See inetd.conf(4).
