sudo echo "Is my TFTP service working?" > /tftpboot/test.txt

tftp> get test.txt

cat test.txt

Try to get the file with Windows:

tftp x.x.x.x get test.txt


Troubleshooting TFTP

To test from windows, TFTP Client must be installed and the Firewall must allow traffic through port 69.

Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows Features on or off -> TFTP Client
