I have set up tftp server but having trouble testing / accessing from remote platforms
Setup:
Code:
sudo apt update;
sudo apt install -y tftpd-hpa;
sudo ufw allow tftp;
put files in
/var/lib/tftpboot
testing from the remote machine times out (firewall disabled)
Code:
tftp 109.228.38.69
tftp> get test.txt
Transfer timed out.
tftp>quit
While testing locally however on the actual server:
Code:
tftp 127.0.0.1
tftp> get test.txt
Received 11 bytes in 0.0 seconds
tftp>quit
The server is hosted on Virtual Private Server with https://www.fasthosts.co.uk/
UFW status
69/udp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
EDIT:
sudo lsof -i:69
returns
Code:
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
in.tftpd 6874 root 4u IPv4 90405 0t0 UDP *:tftp
in.tftpd 6874 root 5u IPv6 90406 0t0 UDP *:tftp
cannot find much about in.tftp - is this a built in service ? Which is better to use and where are its files stored.
