The option -o ftp=0 disables the FTP server and only runs TFTP. Uftpd AUR is a simple (T)FTP server that can be run from the command line: To modify service parameters edit /etc/conf.d/atftpd. This means the messages can be viewed with journalctl or similar. It is not possible to log messages to stdout/stderr, as only syslog is supported.

This is very useful for diagnosing why a machine will not successfully boot from the network, as the debug messages list all requests for files, whether rewrite rules were used, where the files were read from on the filesystem and whether the request was successful or not. The -verbosity 5 option can be used to turn on all debugging messages. The available map file options are documented in in.tftpd(8) § FILENAME REMAPPING. For example if the machine at 192.168.0.1 requests 'boot.bin' and the TFTP server root is /srv/tftp then the file /srv/tftp/192.168.0.1/boot.bin will be returned (or /srv/tftp/::ffff:192.168.0.1/boot.bin if the server is listening on an IPv6 port). This example file will result in each TFTP request being prefixed with the remote IP address. etc/tftpd.map # Add the remote IP address as a folder on the front of all requests. It allows requests to be altered via regular expressions so the files on the server do not have to match the view the client sees, and different files can be returned to different clients even if they request the same file.Ĭonfigure a map by adding -map-file /etc/tftpd.map to /etc/conf.d/tftpd and creating a file such as this:

This server includes a useful URL rewriting feature via the -map-file option ( -mapfile in some versions).

To modify service parameters edit /etc/conf.d/tftpd. They will fail with an error got more than one socket, because only one may listen to the default TFTP port 69. Note: Make sure not to start different TFTP implementations at the same time.
