Automatically Starting TFTPD

To start TFTPD automatically when TCP/IP is started, select the Autostart tab, select TFTPD in the Autostarted Services list box, and check the Autostart Service box under Autostart Options.

If you select the INETD Super Server Daemon as an alternative way to start TFTPD automatically, any TFTPD parameters specified on this page will be ignored.

If you choose to start TFTPD in an OS/2 window foreground session, you can check the Minimized box to minimize the OS/2 window.

When TFTPD is started, users on other hosts can transfer files to and from your host. No user name or password is required.

If you choose to automatically start TFTPD in an OS/2 window foreground session, you can also specify TFTPD parameters in the Parameters field.

Uncheck the Autostart Service box to disable automatic starting of TFTPD when TCP/IP is started. This is the default.

TFTPD Parameters

If you choose to automatically start TFTPD, you can also specify the following command parameter from the Autostart tab:

path
