I'm trying to setup TFTP server on CentOS 6.2.
The /etc/xinet.d/tftp
configuration file is the following:
service tftp
{
disable = no
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /tftpboot -vvv
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
The selinux and firewall are disabled.
The /etc/hosts.allow
and /etc/hosts.deny
files are empty.
When I'm trying to get a file from the TFTP server, the file transfer always failed and I see the following errors into /var/log/messages
Jul 11 03:16:53 localhost xinetd[4155]: xinetd Version 2.3.14 started with libwrap loadavg labeled-networking options compiled in.
Jul 11 03:16:53 localhost xinetd[4155]: Started working: 1 available service

The tftpboot
directory permissions are (output of the ls -l
command):
drw-rw-rw-. 3 root root 4096 Jul 11 03:32 tftpboot
I also see that the tftpboot
directory is shown (by ls -l
) with green background (unlike other files/directories) (Why? As I know the green background is for sticky bit only).
What I did wrong? How can I make TFTP server working?
