Setting up TFTP server in Linux

My environment: RedHat Linux, Fedora Core 8, x86_64

Pretty simple, make sure that you've got the following packages in place:

tftp-server-0.42-5
tftp-0.42-5
xinetd-2.3.14-14.fc8


Go to /etc/xinetd.d, you'll find a file called tftp there. Change the "disable" flag from "yes" to "no".

disable = no

Copy the files you need to the tftp root directory /tftpboot.

Restart the xinetd process:
/etc/init.d/xinetd restart

Done!!
