.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility is a server which supports the
Internet Trivial File Transfer
Protocol
.Pq Tn RFC 1350 .
The
.Tn TFTP
server operates
at the port indicated in the
.Ql tftp
service description;
see
.Xr services 5 .
The server is normally started by
.Xr inetd 8 .
.Pp
The use of
.Xr tftp 1
does not require an account or password on the remote system.
Due to the lack of authentication information,
.Nm
will allow only publicly readable files to be
accessed.
Files containing the string
.Dq Li "/../"
or starting with
.Dq Li "../"
are not allowed.
Files may be written only if they already exist and are publicly writable.
Note that this extends the concept of
.Dq public
to include
all users on all hosts that can be reached through the network;
this may not be appropriate on all systems, and its implications
should be considered before enabling tftp service.
The server should have the user ID with the lowest possible privilege.
.Pp
Access to files may be restricted by invoking
.Nm
with a list of directories by including up to 20 pathnames
as server program arguments in
.Xr inetd.conf 5 .
In this case access is restricted to files whose
names are prefixed by the one of the given directories.
The given directories are also treated as a search path for
relative filename requests.
.Pp
The
.Fl s
option provides additional security by changing
the root directory of
.Nm ,
thereby prohibiting accesses to outside of the specified
.Ar directory .
Because
.Xr chroot 2
requires super-user privileges,
.Nm
must be run as
.Li root .
However, after performing the
.Xr chroot 2
call,
.Nm
will set its user ID to that of the specified
.Ar user ,
or
.Dq Li nobody
if no
.Fl u
option is specified.
.Pp
The options are:
.Bl -tag -width Ds
.It Fl c
Changes the default root directory of a connecting host via
.Xr chroot 2
based on the connecting IP address.
This prevents multiple clients from writing to the same file at the same time.
If the directory does not exist, the client connection is refused.
The
.Fl s
option is required for
.Fl c
and the specified
.Ar directory
is used as a base.
.It Fl C
Operates the same as
.Fl c
except it falls back to
.Ar directory
specified via
.Fl s
if a directory does not exist for the client's IP.
.It Fl F
Use this
.Xr strftime 3
compatible format string for the creation of the suffix if
.Fl W
is specified.
By default the string "%Y%m%d" is used.
.It Fl d, d Ar [value]
Enables debug output.
If
.Ar value
is not specified, then the debug level is increased by one
for each instance of
.Fl d
which is specified.
.Pp
If
.Ar value
is specified, then the debug level is set to
.Ar value .
The debug level is a bitmask implemented in
.Pa src/libexec/tftpd/tftp-utils.h .
Valid values are 0 (DEBUG_NONE), 1 (DEBUG_PACKETS), 2, (DEBUG_SIMPLE),
4 (DEBUG_OPTIONS), and 8 (DEBUG_ACCESS).  Multiple debug values can be combined
in the bitmask by logically OR'ing the values.  For example, specifying
.Fl d
.Ar 15
will enable all the debug values.
.It Fl l
Log all requests using
.Xr syslog 3
with the facility of
.Dv LOG_FTP .
.Sy Note :
Logging of
.Dv LOG_FTP
messages
must also be enabled in the syslog configuration file,
.Xr syslog.conf 5 .
.It Fl n
Suppress negative acknowledgement of requests for nonexistent
relative filenames.
.It Fl o
Disable support for RFC2347 style TFTP Options.
.It Fl s Ar directory
Cause
.Nm
to change its root directory to
.Ar directory .
After doing that but before accepting commands,
.Nm
will switch credentials to an unprivileged user.
.It Fl u Ar user
Switch credentials to
.Ar user
(default
.Dq Li nobody )
when the
.Fl s
option is used.
The user must be specified by name, not a numeric UID.
.It Fl U Ar umask
Set the
.Ar umask
for newly created files.
The default is 022
.Pq Dv S_IWGRP | S_IWOTH .
.It Fl w
Allow write requests to create new files.
By default
.Nm
requires that the file specified in a write request exist.
Note that this only works in directories writable by the user
specified with
.Fl u
option
.It Fl W
As
.Fl w
but append a YYYYMMDD.nn sequence number to the end of the filename.
Note that the string YYYYMMDD can be changed with the
.Fl F
option.

.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
utility appeared in
.Bx 4.2 ;
the
.Fl s
option was introduced in
.Fx 2.2 ,
the
.Fl u
option was introduced in
.Fx 4.2 ,
the
.Fl c
option was introduced in
.Fx 4.3 ,
and the
.Fl F
and
.Fl W
options were introduced in
.Fx 7.4 .
.Pp
Support for Timeout Interval and Transfer Size Options (RFC2349)
was introduced in
.Fx 5.0 ,
support for the TFTP Blocksize Option (RFC2348) and the blksize2 option
was introduced in
.Fx 7.4 .
.Pp
Edwin Groothuis <edwin@FreeBSD.org> performed a major rewrite of the
.Nm
and
.Xr tftp 1
code to support RFC2348.
.Sh NOTES
Files larger than 33,553,919 octets (65535 blocks, last one <512
octets) cannot be correctly transferred without client and server
supporting blocksize negotiation (RFCs 2347 and 2348),
or the non-standard TFTP rollover option.
As a kludge,
.Nm
accepts a sequence of block number which wrap to zero after 65535,
even if the rollover option is not specified.
.Pp
Many tftp clients will not transfer files over 16,776,703 octets
(32767 blocks), as they incorrectly count the block number using
a signed rather than unsigned 16-bit integer.
