I've checked in /etc/init.d, there is no tftp, nor tftpd. I did installed by "apt-get install tftp" and "apt-get install tftpd". Where are those scripts? Or did I installed wrong tftp packages? > to start the service use either > > /etc/init.d/<Service name> start That is the same way in FC where service script can be start/stop/restart. But, I could not find tftp or tftpd scripts. > or > > invoke-rc.d <Service name> start > > to check the status of a service, look at ps -e (grepping as > appropriate) or check > > invoke-rc.d <Service name> status I've tried "/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d tftpd status" with following error: invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/tftpd not found.
