Thread: Tftpd help!!!

i followed guide setting tftpd server.
http://www.davidsudjiman.info/2006/0...tpd-in-ubuntu/

first when tried start it, xinetd returned:

code:

/etc/init.d/xinetd start  * starting internet superserver xinetd                                  [fail]

so tried:

code:

/etc/init.d/xinetd restart  * stopping internet superserver xinetd                                  [ ok ]   * starting internet superserver xinetd                                   [ ok ]

amazing...
but... when run nmap remote machine, nmap returns:

code:

interesting ports on ip.address.goes.here not shown: 997 closed ports port   state service 21/tcp open  ftp 22/tcp open  ssh 80/tcp open  http  nmap done: 1 ip address (1 host up) scanned in 1.63 seconds

when try connect host using tftp commands returned invalid except , put time out...

seems tftpd server not listening on port 69.

here /etc/xinetd.d/tftpd file

code:

service tftp { protocol            = udp port                 = 69 socket_type     = dgram wait                = yes user                = nobody server             = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args     = -s /cisco disable            = no }

here /etc/defaults/tftp-hpa

code:

#defaults tftpd-hpa run_daemon="yes" options="-l -s /cisco"

/etc/xinetd.conf

code:

# simple configuration file xinetd # # defaults, , include /etc/xinetd.d/  defaults {  # please note need log_type line able use log_on_success # , log_on_failure. default following : log_type = syslog daemon info  }  includedir /etc/xinetd.d

(i'd logging working, however, getting tftpd working first priority)
set permissions to:

code:

chmod 777 -r /cisco

can please point me in right direction.
have skipped step in installing, configuring, or trouble shooting tftpd?

that sounds not bad, afaik 'get' , 'put' actions tftp supports.

trying ? have ftp, apparently, why add tftp ?
