A.3 Setting Up a TFTP Server
You can check to see if a TFTP server is set up with the following
command:
host $ rpm -q tftp-server
If it is not set up, you can follow these steps:
1) If you have not yet installed MontaVista Linux Demo Edition (see
Section 4.3.1), you can download a TFTP server for your Linux host
from many locations on the Internet. Search for "tftp-server".
2) To install TFTP, use this command, where
-#.#-# is the version
number portion of the filename:
host $ rpm -ivh tftp-server-#.#-#.rpm
You should see the following output:
warning: tftp-server-#.#-#.rpm:
V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2

3) Confirm that TFTP is installed with this command:
host $ /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep tftp
If you want to turn on the TFTP server, use this command:
/sbin/chkconfig tftp on
The default root location for servicing TFTP files is /tftpboot.
