Except that you're not looking closely enough at the error message. Whatever connection generated that error message, it was destined for the ftp port (21) and not the tftp port (69). When you say "seems to okay", I assume you mean that you have something like this: etc/services: tftp 69/tcp #Trivial File Transfer tftp 69/udp #Trivial File Transfer /etc/inetd.conf tftp dgram udp wait nobody /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd /tftp Have you actually got a /tftp (or whatever name you chose for it) directory? Have you looked at the limitations discussed in the tftpd(8) manual page? Have you restarted inetd? Is inetd being launched with the -w flag? If so, are you sure you're allowing tftpd access in /etc/hosts.allow? If you're really not seeing any other useful error messages, you can try running inetd in debugging mode (-d) and turning on logging (-l). Ciao, Sheldon.
