ok, I'm missing something stupid I'm sure, I (tried) to enable the tftp 
server on a FC4 system, my tftp file in the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file is 
as such

--begin--

service tftp
{
        socket_type             = dgram
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes
        user                    = root
        server                  = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
        server_args             = -c -s /tftpboot
        disable                 = no
        per_source              = 11
        cps                     = 100 2
        flags                   = IPv4
}

--end--

I did a "chmod 777 /tftpboot"

when I attempt to send a file to the tftp server it fails.  I fired up 
ethereal and I can see the following information coming back from what 
should be the tftp server (the FC4 system)... Opcode: Error Code (5),  
Error code: Not defined (0), and Error message: Permission denied

I'm sure I'm missing something stupid.  and I added the -c option so 
tftp will allow file creation.  the system was actually restarted 
several times since the change was made, but I've done a kill -1 and a 
kill -USR2 in the past.

TIA, Jeff
