Well, that's basically how TFTP works on Unix-style systems. You have to first create the file (i.e., 'touch cisco-confg'), then give everyone write permissions to it (i.e., 'chmod 666 cisco-confg') before it can be written by the TFTP server. As far as I know, there's no way to circumvent that using the default tftp server - at least not according to the man pages. It may be possible to find a third-party TFTP server that will, or modify the source to one and compile your own if it's a significant problem.

When I do "write net" on router, I got "TFTP: error code 2 received - Access violation" error message unless I create a destination file first. How do I fix this problem? Many thanks.
