-------------------------------------------------------
Requirements: xinetd tftpd tftp

0 - sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp

--------------------------------------------------------
TFTP Installation Instructions:

  -> Create /etc/xinetd.d/tftp and put this entry 

1 - sudo vim /etc/xinetd.d/tftp

    service tftp
    {
    protocol        = udp
    port            = 69
    socket_type     = dgram
    wait            = yes
    user            = nobody
    server          = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
    server_args     = /tftpboot
    disable         = no
    }

  -> Create a folder /tftpboot this should match whatever you gave 
  in server_args. Most likely it will be tftpboot.

2 - sudo mkdir /tftpboot
3 - sudo chmod -R 777 /tftpboot
4 - sudo chown -R nobody /tftpboot

  -> Restart the xinetd serviceo

5 - sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart

  -> Now our tftp server is up and running

--------------------------------------------------------
TFTP Testing:

  -> Create a file named test with some content in /tftpboot 
  path of the tftp server

  -> Obtain the ip address of the tftp server using ifconfig 
  command

  -> Now in some other system follow the following steps.

tftp <ipaddr>
tftp> get test

Sent 159 bytes in 0.0 seconds

tftp> quit

cat test
