Hi Ken,

Mandrake with 8.+ already uses xinetd in place of inetd. Make sure that a file named 
'tftp' for something
similar is in the /etc/xinetd.d directory. It should contain something similar to what 
is shown below:

/etc/xinetd.d/tftp   ------ start

# tftp service:
# used to boot ltsp workstations.

service tftp
              {
        disable         = no
                socket_type     = dgram
        protocol        = udp
                wait            = yes
                nice                    = 10
                user                    = root
                server                  = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
                log_on_success  += HOST USERID 
}
/etc/xinetd.d/tftp   ------ end

Double check whether your tftp daemom software has been installed correctly 
/usr/sbin/in.tftpd.
Don't forget to restart xinetd using '/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart' at the bash 
prompt.

Hope this helps,

Phil
