tftp keeps timing out when I try to transfer files. I intend to use tftp with G4U to clone a standard workstation. I am testing it between two Dell poweredge servers running CentOS 4.3. "chkconfig --list |grep tftp" shows tftp up and running on both boxes. When connected "tftp>status" shows it is talking to the other box "tptp>trace" shows "sent WRQ <file=slavelit, mode=netascii>" and ends with Transfer timed out.
I have tftp is being run under xinetd.
I have modified /etc/xinetd.d/tftpd as follows:
server_args -p -c -U 002 -u install -s /tster
I have setup a user install, set read/write privileges on /tster which is owned by install
Not sure what else I need to do to get this working, any suggestions would be appreciated
I had problems with the tftp-server (BSDish tftp-hpa) that ships with redhat, especially with large files. Ended up going with atftpd instead

and everything started to work.
