## TFTP server
#
## If you want to start it out of inetd, add something like the following,
## all on one line, to /etc/inetd.conf, then restart inetd
## ('/etc/rc.d/rc.inetd restart'):
# tftp  dgram   udp     wait    root    /usr/sbin/in.tftpd  in.tftpd
# -s /tftpboot -U 077 -r blksize
#
## If you don't want to start it out of inetd, add something to
## /etc/rc.d/rc.local to start it on boot-up in standalone mode:
# if [ -x /usr/sbin/in.tftpd ]; then
#   echo "Starting in.tftpd..."
#   /usr/sbin/in.tftpd -l -s /tftpboot -U 077 -r blksize
# fi
#
# If you have a firewall between whoever will be tftp-ing and the machine
# running the tftpd server, make sure you open up 69/udp

# Become yourself again
