How to start a tftp server using inetd?
I want to start a tftp server. Here, I am using inetd.
Configuration file for tftp in inetd.conf.d folder contains :
tftp dgram udp wait nobody /sbin/tftpd tftpd -l /var/tftp
I have changed the tftp folder permissions to 777 and owner to nobody.
When I am running:
systemctl start /etc/init.d/tftpd
It is throwing this error:
Failed to start etc-init.d-tftpd.mount: Unit etc-init.d-tftpd.mount failed to load: No such file or directory.
What is this error is about ?
How can I solve this error ?
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thank You...!

Working setup
Install following packages.
sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp
Create /etc/xinetd.d/tftp and put this entry
service tftp
{
protocol = udp
port = 69
socket_type = dgram
wait = yes
user = nobody
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = /tftpboot
disable = no
}
Create a folder /tftpboot this should match whatever you gave in server_args. mostly it will be tftpboot
sudo mkdir /tftpboot
sudo chmod -R 777 /tftpboot
sudo chown -R nobody /tftpboot
Restart the xinetd service.
sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart
My suggestion is to move to tftpd-hpa
sudo apt install tftpd-hpa
After instalation edit conf file
sudo vi /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
file must contain something like this
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure -c"
