whats error ?

did you create a /tftpboot directory on the server and does it have the right permissions?

When you go in a tftp server you are chrooted! you tell to the server to put a file from the server to the server.. I don't understand why you don't use ftp.. tftp is used for diskless client. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trivial...nsfer_Protocol

sorry.. put is the correct command.. it works for me (I have a tftp server for a diskless station)

Do you have a /etc/in.tftpd or /etc/tftpd like this: (/etc/conf.d/in.tftpd in gentoo)
# /etc/init.d/in.tftpd

# Path to server files from
INTFTPD_PATH="/diskless"
INTFTPD_USER="nobody"
# For more options, see tftpd(8)
INTFTPD_OPTS="-u ${INTFTPD_USER} -l -vvvvvv -p -c -s ${INTFTPD_PATH}"

thanks to all,

i am using tftp for saving running-configuration and ios of routers. so testing from linux(client tftp) to linux (server tftp)

2nd point, i am at client side and install.log is in root's home directory. and Error message is "file not found"
and /tftpboot/ exists, with permissions

[root@me ~]#l -d /tftpboot/
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 12 2006 /tftpboot/



[root@me ~]# vi /etc/xinetd.d/tftp

service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -s /tftpboot
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}

i am getting errors on client side "file not found"

Don't know for sure but i don't think tftp runs as the root user so you will have to change your directory's permissions on the tftpserver.
With "drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 12 2006 /tftpboot/" only the root user can write to the directory.
