Hi all
I have FC4 on both the client and the server.

I have a problem with tftp client, In fact, I can connect to the server but when I try to get file (even if it's empty), I got Transfer Timed Out.

[heithem@localhost ~]$ tftp
(to) 192.168.1.220
tftp> status
Connected to 192.168.1.220.
Mode: netascii Verbose: off Tracing: off
Rexmt-interval: 5 seconds, Max-timeout: 25 seconds

tftp> get b.txt
Transfer timed out.

I don't know how can I resolve this problem.

Since tftp is very simplistic permit me to ask simplistic questions.
Is the b.txt file in the /tftpboot directory (or whatever directory
you have setup for tftp)? What are the permissions on the file?
I recommend at least 444 (read only).
