You can also use the tftpd located in /usr/libexec, but most of the time you’ll just need a quick GUI to accomplish a task, which the TftpServer app is great for. As with TFTP it’s really straight forward to use!
If there are any problems with the TftpServer application accessing the data shared out then you will more than likely want to click on the Fix button at the bottom of the screen, which will likely be red. Then, once you’re complete with the tasks at hand that require TFTP go ahead and stop it again by clicking on the Stop TFTP button. Once you are satisfied with the directory that you’re sharing out, click on the Start TFTP button. You can also click on the Change Path button to bring up a browse box. You can change the path (if you use DeployStudio with Windows clients you might not want to or you might break the PXE booting) by clicking in the currentpath field and typing the path to the directory you’d like to share out via TFTP. If you’ve already got DeployStudio running then you’ve already got some form of tftp services that you can use and might already have some data in there. By default, the TFTP server will share out the /private/tftpboot directory. Once you have downloaded it, you can open the application and you will be placed into the main application screen.
#Tftp client mac os
There’s a nice little GUI utility that can be used to house a TFTP server on Mac OS X. It’s still in use today for a number of appliances such as routers and switches, to get firmware and occasionally configuration files. While similar to FTP, TFTP has no username and password (in most cases) and should not be running when you do not need it. TFTP, or Trivial File Transfer Protocol is a protocol that can be used for quickly shuttling files about.
