[SOLVED] tftp file transfer
Hello everyone,
I am trying to transfer a file using tftp between two PC's. I have installed tftp-server, tftp, xinetd on both PC's. I am unable to transfer the file between the two systems. although the self transfer is working on both the system. I am getting the error "Transfer timed out"
cat /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
# default: off
# description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \
# protocol. The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \
# workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \
# and to start the installation process for some operating systems.
service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -c -v -s /tftpboot
# disable = yes
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
my error:
tftp 192.12.1.52
tftp> put self.txt
Transfer timed out.
Please help me out of this problem.
Thanks

Have you checked to see if a host firewall on either system is blocking your connection?
