Hi,
I am looking for a TFTP server that is easy like the tftpd32 for Windows that I have been using. Just want to start it with a command and my Cisco can connect and retreive the config files from it.
Many thanks,
Christian

Most distros come with a tftp. What distro are you working with?

Hi,
I am looking for a TFTP server that is easy like the tftpd32
for Windows that I have been using. Just want to start it with
a command and my Cisco can connect and retreive the config files from it.
Debian has:

tftpd
tftpd-hpa
atftpd

tftpd-hpa is H. Peter Anvin's take on tftpd. It is slightly larger, but
has some handy features. atftpd has even more.

A sore point to both tftpd and tftpd-hpa is the logging, which is a bit
lacking.

TFTP is a simple protocol, and by default there's no configuration:

# installing both client and server, to be able to test server with
# client:
apt-get install tftpd-hpa tftp-hpa

# Should be working now. Let's test:
echo hi > /var/lib/tftpboot/hello
tftp localhost -c get /hello
# Should complain if there is a problem. Did we get the file?
cat hello
# we get "hi"

Most Linux distros have a TFTP server built in, however usually it functions
through xinetd, which is probably already running on your machine, so
actually it would cause no extra usage on your system unless the TFTP was in
use. Check your distro's package repository and you should find something
like "tftpd"
