Red Hat / Fedora :: Setup A Tftp Server On Red Hat?
Mar 26, 2010
im trying to setup a tftp server on red hat linux. Ive gone through like all the instructinos online. And like i didnt get any errors or anything when typing the commands on the terminal but basically every time i try to test it i never works sooo im not really sure how im suppose to do this. basically i have a tftp in one ip address. And with another system with a different ip address using the client tftp ipaddr(server) and i try to get foo and it never connects and I tried a ping and they ping together just fine soo im just not sure if the tftp server is even on

You are running tftpd as an on demand server i.e. it is only fired up when it is needed. Services run by xinetd are always run on demand. Have you actually tested if tftp on another system can access your PC i.e.
Code:
tftp your_pc_ip_address

I am trying to setup a TFTP server and followed these instructions in setting up TFTP-HPA.
[URL]
I pretty much followed every step but commented out these two lines from the /etc/xinet.d/tftp.
# only_from = 172.31.0.240/28
# interface = 172.31.0.252
Do we really need the lines if I am allowing any machine to connect? And I have only 1 network card. This is acting as a dedicated TFTP server.I ask as I get an error on the get and put commands as below:
tftp> get xxx.txt
tftp: error received from server <File not found>
tftp: aborting
However although it gives an error it DOES GET the file.The put command however does NOT put the file. I have nobody / nogroup setup for the directory permissions as well.
tftp> put .vimrc
tftp: error received from server <File not found>
tftp: aborting

a machine with 2+ network cards, need to setup TFTP server on one card and use internet on another.
the tftpd server works on default routing network adaptor with following configuration.
How set the TFTP server on the secondary network adaptor?
TFTP server tftpd by xinetd configuration in: /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
{
protocol = udp
port = 69
socket_type = dgram
[Code]....
Could not find how to change the post <prefix> I remembered clearly I did before.

I am fairly new to ubuntu server, I want to setup a tftp server to mount a new kernel in a DaVinci platform. I was following the guide in this page [URL]..docs/linux_tftp, but accidentally I remove the xinetd.conf file. So I think that maybe removing and reinstalling xinetd the problem will be solved, but instead of that I can't completely remove xinetd and the follow message is print in the terminal
Removing xinetd ...
invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/xinetd not found.
dpkg: error processing xinetd (--remove):
subprocess installed pre-removal script returned error exit status 100
invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/xinetd not found.
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 100
Errors were encountered while processing:
xinetd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
with that problem I can't start the service or stop it, I am blocked in the configuration of tftp server.

When I try to pxe boot a Sun X4100 (which actually has a RHEL OS on it right now) I get the message TFTP open timeout. All traffic is allowed for port 69 udp in both directions. I do get a dhcp address. I see that both on the server and the client it gets an IP. After that I get this message in the logs:

This is very old topic but despite of trying out all possible solutions available on net and forums, I am not able to setup tftp server on my 2.6.32.11-99.FC12.i686.PAE. Is there something obvious missing out.

I have tftp-server running on Centos 5. Clients which are on the same subnet as the server are able to get and put without problems. I have a client that is across the internet that is having trouble getting files from my tftp server. A tcpdump reveals that the client is requesting the same file over and over again. In /var/log/messages, I am see the following error repeated over and over until the client finally gives up.
localhost in.tftpd[12727]: tftpd: read: No route to host

I want a debian server running dhcp/tftp/pxe containing a tarball of a 'client' debian installation.I want a client that pxe boots, talks to the server, creates a ramdisk, untars the 'client' tarball to the ramdisk and boots into it. Once that's working, I want an NFS map back to the server for the users home directory.Can't find any really helpful howto's... wondering if anyone on here has done this?

I'm trying to install Debian on a Sun Ultra Enterprise 3000. See: [url]
So, I guess the cdrom is kaput. My next option is to net boot. I find the instructions here: [url]
A bit lacking. So, I want to ask if I am doing things right. Using this page and others from found via the Google, I have the following:
On Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, I ran:
Code:
to install rarpd. In /etc/hosts I have
Code:
In /etc/ethers I have
Code:
Then run
Code:
So, I think that should set up the RARP server, but I don't know. Now for the TFTP server. I follow the instructions here: [url]
except for step 4 I use
Code:
In /etc/inetd.conf I have
Code:
So I put the files from:[url]
in /srv/tftp. Then I cd /srv/tftp, and run
Code:
Then
Code:
Ok, finially, from the OpenBoot OK propmt on the Sun machine, I type
Code:
All I get is
Code:
and it just keeps doing that....

I'm trying to setup a network boot server and I'm having an issue with tftp. In the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file, I added the "-v" (verbose) option to the server arg line so that i could figure out what was happening. When i looked at the /var/log/messages log file, it let me know that permission was denied to /tftpboot/nbi_img.
So, in short, my problem is that tftp isn't working because it doesn't have permission to /tftpboot/nbi_img. I can't figure out why. I stumbled upon a site where the user figured out a temporary fix to this issue and what he did was disabled the xinetd service and typed the following command:/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -l -v -v -s /tftpboot/nbi_imgWhen I do this as well, it works! but only until I restart and then I have to do that again. Is there a way to be able to fix that for good?

So I'm playing around w/ some Cisco equipment and needed a quick tftp server. Go to command line and type yum install tftp-server. I get No Package available! I can clearly see it here on the i386 repo. Any ideas?? In the meantime, I'm just going to upgrade this lil 600m laptop to CentOS 6 to quickly solve the problem but I thought it was curious.

I am trying to wade through the semanage jungle to get permissions for a tftp client. I followed the HowTos [URL] but I get the following at the client:
tftp> status
Connected to 192.168.1.101.
Mode: netascii Verbose: off Tracing: off
Rexmt-interval: 5 seconds, Max-timeout: 25 seconds
tftp> get hello.o4
tftp: hello.o4: Permission denied
I finally figured out that the firewall directives shown at the end of the HowTo refer to semanage although the options are stated incorrectly according to the man page for semanage. I did insure that the file hello.o4 in /tftpboot has read permission for everybody.

I'm looking for a purely standalone TFTP server that does not make use of inetd, can be run by non-root users (at non-root port numbers, of course), and if run as root, can do chroot and switch to a non-root user to shed root privileges.

I'm trying to TFTP router configurations to a server in the same local network without having to first make files in the server's TFTP directory . The transfer of a config file from router to server works perfectly if I make a file with touch and then chmod the file with 777. I found information that says to use the -c or --create option in the TFTP configuration file (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa) if you want TFTP to work without having to create the files first. The problem is, I have set this parameter and restarted TFTP , but it is not working.
Here is my /etc/default/tftpd-hpa file:
# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
#TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/tftp"

I am downloading some files via tftp from the server (call it my server) and I need the server to be case insensitive to the file names requested. That is If I request "SoMe.TTL" and the actual file name is "some.ttl" it should send "some.ttl" back! Right now it is case sensitive and is a pain in the but because some windows clients upload files to that directory and the names can have any case. Furthermore, the file request mechanism must allow the user to input the required file name, hence the user can write using any case. Can the tftp-server solve cases by it's own? How about dnsmasq's internal tftp server? Ok, maybe I wasn't explicit above:
I need to make the fedora tftpd-server Case Insensitive!

If you hadn't guessed it from my last 3000(ish) java-related posts, I'm a Java n00b writing a Java Applet for a work project. I got to the part was I was about to write the applet code that would send HTTP requests to my CGI scripts. But I read some paragraphs in a book praising Java servlets as better that CGI because they are easier to use and give much better performance server side. My server load isn't very big, though, and I was wondering if it would be worth taking the time to learn about Java servlets and how to set up the server side configuration on my Fedora web server.

We are trying to set up a NIS server on a CentOS system. We need to have a NIS server which can provide NIS authentication to a couple of clients. We are practically new to all this stuff.
Just googled to find some ideas about installing ypserv and ypbind and portmapper. We did all that and also started them successfully. But now the clients are not able to join to the NIS domain . The error log states "YP_DOMAIN NOT BOUND".
I guess we have not entered the /etc/yp.conf, /etc/hosts files properly. Please let us know the detailed steps to setup a NIS server .
Also, please let us know what entries should go into the different /etc/<file_names>? What is meant by HOSTNAME in the /etc/hosts file?
Is there any other files which need to be changed? Are we missing any steps?
Also to add-on, while executing the ypinit command we faced the following error:
At this point, we have to construct a list of the hosts which will run NIS servers. localhost.localdomain is in the list of NIS server hosts. Please cont inue to add the names for the other hosts, one per line. When you are done with the list, type a <control D>. next host to add: localhost.localdomain next host to add:
The current list of NIS servers looks like this:
Is this correct? [y/n: y] y
