<b>NAME</b>
<b>tftpd</b> - DARPA Trivial File Transfer Protocol server
<b>SYNOPSIS</b>
<b>tftpd [directory ...]</b>
<b>tftpd [-cs] [directory]</b>
<b>DESCRIPTION</b>
<b>tftpd</b> is a server which supports the DARPA Trivial File Transfer Proto-
col. The TFTP server operates at the port indicated in the `tftp' ser-
vice description; see <b>services(5</b>). The server is normally started by
inetd(8).
The use of <b>tftp(1)</b> <i>does not</i> require an account or password on the remote
system. Due to the lack of authentication information, tftpd will allow
only publicly readable files to be accessed. Files may be written only
if they already exist and are publicly writable. Note that this extends
the concept of ``public'' to include all users on all hosts that can be
reached through the network; this may not be appropriate on all systems,
and its implications should be considered before enabling tftp service.
The server should have the user ID with the lowest possible privilege.
Access to files may be restricted by invoking tftpd with a list of direc-
tories by including pathnames as server program arguments in
<b>/etc/inetd.conf</b>. In this case access is restricted to files whose names
are prefixed by the one of the given directories.
If the -c flag is used, tftpd will allow new files to be created; other-
wise uploaded files must already exist. Files are created with default
permissions allowing anyone to read or write to them.
When using the -s flag with a directory name, tftpd will chroot(2) on
startup; therefore the remote host is not expected to pass the directory
as part of the file name to transfer. This option is intended primarily
for compatibility with SunOS boot ROMs which do not include a directory
name.
