but I am not sure how to start things from xinetd. I chown +x tftp and
ran ./tftp and it seemed to have changed the status in chkconfig to
on. But I am still a bit lost. I am making this to hard?
Look at the 'server_args' in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp. It should
specify the directory where tftp will run. Since there is
no authentication, you have to pre-create files there with
world-write permission before tftp will overwrite them.
touch filename
chmod 666 filename
should let you tftp a copy in. Also make sure you aren't
blocking it with firewalling.
