SOLVED t*f*t*p server for Incredible Pi

[jharre]

While on vacation, a newer version of IncrediblePi was released and I loaded it up after returning. Still had the same problem with the t*f*t*p server and did some more digging.

Basically, there's an option missing in the file /etc/default/tftpd-hpa. Apparently, tftpd-hpa tries to start up in IPv6 and dies when it doesn't find it. The fix is to change the configuration file to add "--ipv4" to the TFTP_OPTIONS line:

Edit it using:

nano /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

and change the file to look like this:

# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa
 
RUN_DAEMON="yes"
OPTIONS="-l -s /tftpboot"
TFTP_USERNAME="t*f*t*p"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/tftpboot"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="--ipv4 --secure"

After saving the file, restart the service using:

service tftpd-hpa restart

Now my Cisco phones find the configuration files in the /tftpboot directory as expected!
