I'm having some trouble setting up TFTP service from an Ubuntu-9.04 'desktop' installation. I installed 'tftpd-hpa' and have tried to configure it, but don't get even local service to my own login.<BR>
<BR>
My '/etc/inetd.conf' includes:<BR>
'tftp dgram udp nobody /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -s /var/lib/tftpboot'<BR>
<BR>
Ownership and permissions on that directory are:<BR>
$ ls -l /var/lib<BR>
...<BR>
drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody root ... tftpboot<BR>
...<BR>
<BR>
I also have '/etc/xinetd.d/tftp-hpa' as:<BR>
"service tftp<BR>
{<BR>
protocol = udp<BR>
port = 69<BR>
socket_type = dgram<BR>
wait = yes<BR>
user = nobody<BR>
# group = nobody<BR>
group = root<BR>
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd<BR>
server_args = /var/lib/tftpboot<BR>
# only_from = 10.59.0.0<BR>
disable = no<BR>
}"<BR>
<BR>
Turning off the firewall is no help. Incoming 'tftp' to another server works fine.<BR>
<BR>
Any ideas how to get this going?<BR>
<BR>
TIA.<BR>
