Installing a TFTP Server on Linux
Installing a TFTP Server on Solaris
186
Before installing the TFTP server on your Red Hat Linux server, check for previous
installations.
To verify if the TFTP server is already installed on your Linux server, run the following
command:
rpm -q tftp-server
If the TFTP server is installed, the output indicates the following:
tftp-server-<version>-<revision>
For example, the output for an unpatched Red Hat 9.0 server is as follows:
tftp-server-0.32-4
If the TFTP server is not installed, then download and install the package from the Red
Hat Linux installation CD or from the Internet at the Red Hat or Red Hat mirror site. After
the package is installed, you must enable and configure the TFTP server.
To configure and enable the TFTP server on Linux:
Open the
/etc/xinetd.d/tftp
1.
Edit the parameter "server_args =" so that the value is "-s
2.
/usr/netscreen/DevSvr/var/cache".
Edit the parameter "disable" so that the value is "no" . The file should now appear as
3.
follows:
service tftp
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /usr/netscreen/DevSvr/var/cache
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
}
Restart the xinetd service. For example:
4.
service xinetd restart
By default, Solaris installs the TFTP service on your machine but leaves it disabled.
To configure and enable the TFTP service on Solaris:
Open the
/etc/inetd.conf
1.
Uncomment the line that begins with "tftp" or "#tftp" .
