By default, Windows 2000 does not install the Trivial FTP Daemon (TFTPD) service.
You can obviously install a third-party TFTPD Server, but you can also actually install the
TFTPD service without any third-party server.
Copy the file tftpd.exe from
\%SystemRoot%\system32\dllcache to
\%SystemRoot%\system32.
Next, use instsrv.exe utility from the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
Resource Kit to create the service as follows:
instsrv tftpd c:\winnt\system32\tftpd.exe
To start the service enter:
net start tftpd
Now that you’ve created a TFTPD server on Windows 2000 you can test this server using:
tftpd -f <IPAddress of server> put <filename>
The service will create a directory named tftproot in
\%SystemDdrive, and the file whose name you entered above
will be in this directory.
Enjoy!!
