Hi, I have installed RedHat 7.2 and have updated /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file. The file looks like this:
# default: off # description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \ # protocol. The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \ # workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \ # and to start the installation process for some operating systems. service tftp { socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root port = 69 server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -s /tftpboot disable = no } What I observe is that tftp server works locally but when I try to use it remotely, it fails. This is the error message that I get when I run "xinetd -d" Service configuration: sgi_fam id = sgi_fam type = RPC UNLISTED socket_type = stream Protocol (name,number) = (tcp,6) Groups = 0 Bind = 248.254.8.8 Server = /usr/bin/fam Server argv = fam RPC data program number = 391002 rpc_version = 2 Logging to syslog. Facility = authpriv, level = info Log_on_success flags = HOST PID Log_on_failure flags = HOST Service configuration: tftp id = tftp socket_type = dgram port = 69 Protocol (name,number) = (udp,17) Groups = 0 Server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd Server argv = in.tftpd -s /tftpboot Logging to syslog.

Exiting... Has anyone encountered this problem with RedHat 7.2? With RedHat 6.2 , I got my TFTP server working. Please let me know what is the workaround to get past this problem.
