Bug 36051 – atftp needs startup files

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kai Schmidt 2003-12-18 03:52:23 UTC]

Versions 0.6 and 0.6.2 of atftp (Trivial FTP Server) could need some assisting files to start the server. Both ways (via xinetd, or stand alone with /etc/init.d/atftp start) need simple supporting files, which should be included in the ebuild.

1. /etc/init.d/atftp
2. /etc/xinetd.d/atftp

Those files are trivial. I can send them if necessary.

Best regards

Kai

Hello.

I'm agree with Kai Schmidt.
Here is a sample startup file for init.d directory

File: /etc/init.d/atftp
#!/sbin/runscript

depend() {
        use logger
        need net
}

checkconfig() {
        if [ ! -d "${TFTPD_ROOT}" ]
        then
                error "You need a tftp root direcory"
                return 1
        fi
}

start() {
        checkconfig || return 1
        ebegin "Starting tftpd"
        start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/in.tftpd \
                -- ${TFTPD_OPTS} ${TFTPD_ROOT}
        eend $?
}

stop() {
        ebegin "Stopping tftpd"
        start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
        eend $?
}

File : /etc/conf.d/atftp
# Config file for tftp server

TFTPD_ROOT="/tftproot"
TFTPD_OPTS="--daemon --user nobody --group nobody"

I've not produced an xinetd service file, because i don't use it.

Best regards
