Hi Jess,

Have you also done the following on the FreeBSD system:

mkdir /tftpboot
touch /tftpboot/name_of_destination_file
chmod -R 777 /tftpboot

For example, if you're going to backup your IOS, create a file called
old_ios (or whatever is useful to you) and specify that as the destination
filename when you do your "copy flash tftp".

Also, did you send a signal 1 to inetd to inform it of your changes to
inetd.conf?
