Adel,

tftp is a Trivial File Transfer Protocol, and is used primarily for the
unauthenticated transfer of files across a network, typically for the
initial loading of software.  Such as firmware, boot code, embedded
systems, etc.  The most contact I've had with tftp is the loading of
router code into Cisco equipment, and the initial (no software on the
disk) load of computer workstations.

ftp, on the other hand, supports authentication and is more versatile
than tftp.

For some reason I'm having trouble replying, this is the third attempt.
