Tag: admin::boot, admin::file-distribution, filetransfer::ftp, interface::daemon, network::server, protocol::ftp, protocol::ip, role::program, use::configuring So, the tftpd is the tftp server, what's going here?? > will provide the package description and various details such as > dependencies. > > > Indeed, from packages.debian.org and the package description, looks > like tftpd expects to start form inet.d, so you'd have to put the > proper entries in inet.d.conf and will not see the daemon running > unless someone's actually connected.
