[SOLVED] installing atftp??

[mosol2005]

okay, then try this:

sudo /usr/sbin/atftpd --daemon --user nobody --group nobody /tftpboot

if it does not output any errors, see if it is running using that ps command again.

there is no output.........
and after ps command,the output is:
1000 13580 0.0 0.0 4388 828 pts/1 S+ 12:44 0:00 grep --color=auto atftpd

is there anything in /var/log/messages related to atftpd not starting? try:

sudo grep atftpd /var/log/messages

just to and get it to spit out the version, to make sure it can run at all:

/usr/sbin/atftpd -V

if not, you may have to run a strace, but I hope it doesn't come to that...

after first command there was'nt any message but after the second command,the output was:
atftp-0.7 (server)

after first command there was'nt any message

i think that is the wrong file, try /var/log/sysog, e.g.:

sudo grep atftpd /var/log/syslog

sudo grep atftpd /var/log/syslog

the output is :

Oct 28 09:04:45 ubuntu atftpd[963]: atftpd: invalid IP address

try supplying a valid ip address used by your server. if you do not know, check the output of this ip command

ip -o addr show |awk '$2 !~ /lo/ && $3 ~ /inet$/{print $2,$4}'

say your ip address is 192.168.1.2, try this atftpd command:

 sudo /usr/sbin/atftpd --daemon --bind-address 192.168.1.2 --user nobody --group nobody /tftpboot

then check the output of ps again to see if running. if not, grep the syslog file again.

it looks like you just used the ip address I used in my example (192.168.1.2). you need to determine your ip address (using the "ip" command I suggested. or simply run "ifconfig" and look for "inet" ip addresses).

I'm sorry but now,there is an error:
sudo: /usr/sbin/atftpd: command not found

Did you remove the atftpd package?

dpkg -L atftpd

ls -l /usr/sbin/atftpd

reinstall it:

sudo apt-get install atftpd
