TFTP Server
I need a simple TFTP server to get and pull configs of Cisco equipment. All the info I am finding on TFTP servers running on linux are about network booting. Can anyone suggest a light TFTP server daemon for Linux (I have slackware).

You do not need a server. Just use the tftp client. However, if the equipment configuration server requires a username, password then wget would be a better choice.
See man pages for tfpt and wget for more info. |
No, I need to connect the cisco device to a TFTP server, so the client would be the switch, router etc. The linux machine (my laptop) needs an TFTP server to I can get/put files onto the cisco boxes.

I misunderstood the problem. There are several tftp servers like tftp-hpa. Check out freshmeat .net. This one looks promising for your application:

Hey matt, did you ever get utftpd working? I just installed it but the USAGE docs are not very clear on how to configure it. I read that you have to run utftpd_make, but i don't know how to do this to generate a file that you need to put into /etc/inet.d along with some other info. More specifically:
Code:
Put something like this: Code:
default:sccs-get(/bin/get) sccs-delta(/bin/delta) \ The thing is that even when running utftpd_make from where it's located, i get a '-sh: .utftpd_make: command not found' error. So i got kinda lost. If it's not too much trouble, perhaps you can share the rest of steps you went through to get tftp working with your cisco boxes, since i am in diers need to do this too. Thanks a bunch man. |
TFTP blues...
Hi forum,
I am using Redhat ent5 svr. trying to set up tftp server, but not going any where. I have following setting in my /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file service tftp { disable = no socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd per_source = 11 server_args = -c -s /tftphost cps = 100 2 } when I restart "/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd.d restart" to restart xinetd it restart without problem, even I can ps -eF | grep tftp and I can see the service is up and running. But when I try to do tftp at shell prompt I do not get any response, instead following response. [root@tomcat shy]# tftp bash: tftp: command not found Is something I am doing wrong? Service Manager also report the tftp service is running with xinetd tftp should response, but in my case does not! Does any one has same problem on RH enterprise 5 server? Thanks in advance. shy |

following provided link I analysed but it pertain to slackware box. I am using REDHAT enterprise server 5 where I cannot find file named /etc/inetd.conf instead xinetd.conf. The entry or word I am looking for is tftp or any thing related to that particular so I can invoke tftp server; whose content as follow:
# # This is the master xinetd configuration file. Settings in the # default section will be inherited by all service configurations # unless explicitly overridden in the service configuration. See # xinetd.conf in the man pages for a more detailed explanation of # these attributes. defaults { # The next two items are intended to be a quick access place to # temporarily enable or disable services. # # enabled = # disabled = # Define general logging characteristics. log_type = SYSLOG daemon info log_on_failure = HOST log_on_success = PID HOST DURATION EXIT # Define access restriction defaults # # no_access = # only_from = # max_load = 0 cps = 50 10 instances = 50 per_source = 10 # Address and networking defaults # # bind = # mdns = yes v6only = no # setup environmental attributes # # passenv = groups = yes umask = 002 # Generally, banners are not used. This sets up their global defaults # # banner = # banner_fail = # banner_success = } includedir /etc/xinetd.d Help much appriciated, thanks shy |
