Look at the 'server_args' in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp. It should
specify the directory where tftp will run. Since there is
no authentication, you have to pre-create files there with
world-write permission before tftp will overwrite them.
touch filename
chmod 666 filename
should let you tftp a copy in. Also make sure you aren't
blocking it with firewalling.
You could do this with a command like:
iptables -I input 1 -t udp -j ACCEPT
