Dear all,

I have a question about setting up a TFTP server with the IPv6 protocol.

Is this done by adding a line into the inetd.conf file as shown in the 
following?

#
# IPv6 services
#
ftp     stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/libexec/ftpd       ftpd -l
telnet  stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/libexec/telnetd    telnetd
tftp    dgram   udp6    wait    nobody  /usr/libexec/tftpd      -s 
/usr/local/tftp      tftpd/tftpboot
#shell  stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/libexec/rshd       rshd
#login  stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/libexec/rlogind    rlogind

I've tried differernt combinations of protocols "udp, udp4 udp6 udp46".... 
however, the tftp server only works for IPv4.

I have a router connected to this FreeBSD host.  If a TFTP request is sent 
to the host... an error message saying "Connection Refused" or "Address has 
already been used" is displayed in the console terminal.

Apr  3 11:02:11 ipv6host1 tftpd[238]: read: Connection refused
Apr  3 11:02:11 ipv6host1 tftpd[238]: read: Connection refused
Apr  3 11:02:15 ipv6host1 tftpd[240]: read: Connection refused
Apr  3 11:02:15 ipv6host1 tftpd[240]: read: Connection refused
Apr  3 11:02:15 ipv6host1 tftpd[240]: read: Connection refused

Does the tftpd daemon support IPv6???

Can anyone help me how to set up a TFTP server over IPv6???

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
