$ dpkg -L tftpd
Package `tftpd' does not contain any files (!)

This is stange and I am confused, how can calling "apt-get install
tftpd" get nothing??

Description: Trivial file transfer protocol server
 Tftpd is a server which supports the Internet Trivial File Transfer Protocol
 (RFC 783).  The TFTP server operates at the port indicated in the `tftp'
 service description; see services(5).  The server is normally started by
 inetd(8).
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??

Well, my inetd.conf contains following tftp:

tftp  dgram  udp wait  nobody  /usr/sbin/tcpd  /usr/sbin/in.tftpd /srv/tftp

How to start/stop/restart the intd?

Thank Andrew,
