ubuntu上配置tftp server

Install tftp server

1. Install following packages.
   

1. sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp 

2. Create and put this entry int /etc/xinetd.d/tftpd

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

3. Create a folder /tftpboot this should match whatever you gave in server_args. mostly it will be tftpboot

   sudo mkdir /tftpboot
   sudo chmod -R 777 /tftpboot
   sudo chown -R nobody /tftpboot 

4. Restart the xinetd service.

   sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart 

   (sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd start)

   (sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd stop)

   Now our tftp server is up and running. 

Testing our tftp server

1. Create a file named test with some content in /tftpboot path of the tftp server

   Obtain the ip address of the tftp server using ifconfig command

2. Now in some other system follow the following steps.

   tftp 192.168.1.2
   tftp> get test
   Sent 159 bytes in 0.0 seconds
   
   tftp> quit
   
   cat test
