I have not modified the hosts.deny or hosts.allow. they only have comments in the file.

are you using tcpwrappers (i.e., /etc/hosts.deny, hosts.allow) to control access? if so, you'll likely need to add a line for the tftpd service (for the incoming machine in question) to hosts.allow.

I did the following to setup the tftp server.

Download tftp from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/software/network/tftp/tftp-0.40.bz2 tar -jxvf tftp-0.40.bz2 cd tftp-0.40 make make install mkdir /tftpboot chmod 777 /tftpboot chown nobody:nobody /tftpboot changed /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file to "disable no" service xinetd restart

Now when I connect I get in /var/log/messages "tftpd: read(ack): Connection refused"

I even rebooted - get same message I did "iptables -f" - get the same message

Any ideas why I cannot connect? seems to be running.

Jerry
