From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2smp i686) tftpd 0.17-9, as before with 0.17-5 in RH 7.0, won't put or get. Unlike with 0.17-5, gets won't even work with absolute paths. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install tftp-server and setup. 2. Run tftp against server for puts and gets. Actual Results: "transfer timed out" with all puts and gets. Expected Results: Should have put and got the requested files. tftpd has been broken at least since 0.17-5. Reverting to 0.16 is a poor workaround due to the fact that you have to pre-create the files for putting.
put and get was fixed in tftp-0.17-11, please see my additional comments from 2001-04-18 in bug #29529 (but I still will need to check absolute paths) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 29529 ***
