Description Stefan G. Weichinger 2013-08-27 20:32:23 UTC

net-ftp/tftp-hpa does not provide service-files for systemd.

A working suggestion (not yet reading a conf.d file, so you have to edit your tftp-dir into the service-file):

# tftpd.service 
[Unit]
Description=hpa's original TFTP daemon

[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/in.tftpd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/in.tftpd -R 4096:32767 -s /mnt/nfsexports/pxe/
StandardInput=socket
StandardOutput=inherit
StandardError=journal

# tftpd.socket 
[Socket]
ListenDatagram=69

[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target

Is it completely needed? Please look at:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Systemd/Ebuild_policy

about how to proceed with conf files.

Yes, noticed your posting on planet gentoo ...

So you suggest a subdir /etc/systemd/system/in.tftpd etc. ... right?
I will see if I understand correctly and come back here ...

From what I read in current conf.d file looks like we would need a config for setting INTFTPD_PATH as that will change depending on each setup, right?

I would then provide the gentoo.conf with that option, but wouldn't that for the other INTFTPD_OPTS as they look to be sane defaults that shouldn't be changed (but I haven't used this package and, then, I am not completely sure if we need to make this configurable too)

Yes, correct.

I assume it isn't really necessary.

I have seen we are the only distribution that allows people to play with the directory. Other make apps use the same directory (that looks more reasonable) (checked in Arch and Fedora). For our case, I have chosen the directory used by the only consumer in the tree at the moment
