Due to the lack of authentication information, \fBin.tftpd\fR will allow only publicly readable files to be accessed. Files may be written only if they already exist and are publicly writable. Note that this extends the concept of "public" to include all users on all hosts that can be reached through the network. This may not be appropriate on all systems, and its implications should be considered before enabling this service. .sp .LP \fBin.tftpd\fR runs with the user \fBID\fR and group \fBID\fR set to \fB[GU]ID_NOBODY\fR under the assumption that no files exist with that owner or group. However, nothing checks this assumption or enforces this restriction. .SH OPTIONS .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-d\fR\fR .ad .RS 15n Debug. When specified it sets the \fBSO_DEBUG\fR socket option. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-s\fR\fR .ad .RS 15n Secure. When specified, the directory change to \fIhomedir\fR must succeed. The daemon also changes its root directory to \fIhomedir\fR. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB-T\fR \fIrexmtval\fR\fR .ad .RS 15n Specifies the value of the retransmission timeout in seconds. This also affects the maximum session timeout in that the latter is set to five times the retransmission timeout value. .RE .SH USAGE .LP The \fBin.tftpd\fR server is IPv6-enabled. See \fBip6\fR(4P). .LP \fBin.tftpd\fR supports transfers of greater than 32 MB, per RFC 2348. .SH SEE ALSO .LP .BR svcs (1), .BR tftp (1), .BR ip6 (4P), .BR netconfig (5), .BR attributes (7), .BR smf (7), .BR inetadm (8), .BR inetd (8), .BR svcadm (8) .LP Malkin, G. and Harkin, A. \fIRFC 2347, TFTP Option Extension\fR.

Responsibility for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to \fBinetd\fR(8). Use \fBinetadm\fR(8) to make configuration changes and to view configuration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the \fBsvcs\fR(1) command.
