 |
|
I need to setup a basic tftp server so that I can get and put Cisco router/switch configurations for an assignment. Normally I would just use the Cisco TFTP server or Solarwinds on a Windows machine, but I just find it easier to use my Gentoo laptop to do it. I would like to use a native Linux program and not anything in WINE. I've tried tftp-hpa, but I can't get it to work, any help would be awesome.
Security is not an issue in this setup, the network that I'll be working on will have no other hosts other than my computer and will have no Internet access, and I only want to run the server when I'm in class working. |

Where exactly do you run into trouble?
What are the contents of your /etc/conf.d/tftp-hpa file? |

| After installing a tftp server, which can be controlled by xinetd, you'd need to place the files you want downloaded in /tftpboot |
