Specifying -v a couple of times may yield more information in the logs. tftp
is pretty sparse in it's logging unless to tell it otherwise.
If that doesn't yield any useful information, I would uninstall the
tftp-server rpm and the xinetd config for it and reinstall stock, and try to
get it working with stock settings. If that works, slowly change to your
desired settings, to see what's causing the problem.
