Looking into it, in Karmic and before, tftpd was started with:
OPTIONS="-l -s /var/lib/tftpboot"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON -- $OPTIONS
And now it runs with:
TFTP_OPTIONS=""

I do not changed the directory from "/srv/tftp" to "/var/lib/tftpboot".
I only added the "--secure" option and checked the content and permissions of
the new directory (they were all ok).
Maybe, the two directory are equals after the upgrade and the old
"/var/lib/tftpboot" can be deleted but I ha
Upgraded server from 8.04 LTS to 10.04 LTS on 8/21/2010. Server was
running LTSP with 8.04. Same issue with clients not able to access tftp
directory. The fix suggested by Inno to change the directory and add "
--secure" worked (THANK YOU!):
# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
#TFTP_
I explain better.
At work I have a VM with ubuntu 9.10 that is an upgraded from a 9.04.
With 9.04 i had 2 working clients that do not work with 9.10 (they were old and

One client was not able to boot and the other had sound problems.
Then, for testing purpose, i tried at
I did not see the issue myself, but the reporter and another person
(comments #1 and #2) say that for them, /etc/default/tftpd-hpa contained
"/srv/tftp" instead of the expected "/var/lib/tftpboot", and that caused
the message "forbidden directory" to be displayed.
I don't know under which circumst
tftpd-hpa installs by default with /var/lib/tftpd-hpa as its directory, but
that behavior can be changed by a debconf preseeded value.
I can't see any issue in tftpd-hpa itself... Alkis, could you explain in more
details ?

Hi Alkis--
I installed from the desktop CD, not the alternate, and tftpd set up for
/srv. I don't know what the contract is between the various Ubuntu
services like tftp and the many (Ubuntu and custom) applications that
might use them. I assumed that it would be the responsibility of the
LT
As far as I know, this bug consists of three separate bugs, one in
tftpd-hpa (==when installing from the alternate CD tftpd-hpa uses /srv
while when installing from the desktop CD it uses /var/lib/tftpboot),
one in compiz, and a sound problem.
So I'm marking it invalid for LTSP and I'm putting tft
