# Default: off

# Workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers,
# And to start the installation process for some operating systems.

[Root @ localhost/] # chmod 777/tftpboot/
Restart:
[Root @ localhost ~] # Service xinetd restart

7. Test
[Root @ localhost ~] # Cd/tftpboot/
[Root @ localhost tftpboot] # ls
