Serve an NFS mount over TFTP

view full story
linux-howto

http://serverfault.com – I have a FreeBSD server on which I would like to run a TFTP server (for PXE). My daemon of choice is tftp-hpa and I have it configured to serve from /tftpboot properly. It works unless I mount /tftpboot via NFS. Here is some more information... sockstat -4l confirms in.tftpd is running on *:69 (which is correct) telnet obviously doesn't work (UDP) but when I try to grab a file that exists, I get a timeout. There's no loot in /var/log/messages When I request a file that does not exist, I get the proper error Any ideas? (HowTos)

Enabling TFTP in Solaris 10 18 weeks 2 days ago

Hi,

I was trying to enable TFTP on my Solaris 10. I started with un-commenting the tftp line in /etc/inetd.conf and inetconv -i /etc/inetd.conf for tftp installation. I did reboot the server afterwards, but i still cannot find the /tftpboot directory. though the return of svcs -a | grep -i tftp is online.

Do I have to create myself? or there is something still missing?

thanks in advance

Hello everyone,

[solved] systemd and tftpd 22 weeks 6 days ago

OK, I have it working. There were several things wrong:1) The modified tftpd.service file was incorrect. The introduction of the '-l' flag, to run tftpd as a standalone service, not inetd driven, was preventing the socket based unit from working. The tftpd.service file below is working correctly with the stock tftpd.socket file provided with the tftp-hpa package.

I'm getting a "Transfer timed out." error when I try to transfer a file using the following command,"tftp -4 10.94.161.170 -c get filename" These are the contents of my /etc/xinetd.d/tftp # default: off # description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \ # protocol.

What does the service file look like?Like this?[Unit] Description=hpa's original TFTP daemon
