Synopsis
tftp enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated tftp packages that add support for IPv6 and correct errors in
documentation are now available.
Description
The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is normally used only for booting
diskless workstations. The tftp package provides the user interface for
TFTP, which allows users to transfer files to and from a remote machine.
The tftp-server package provides the server for TFTP which allows users to
transfer files to and from a remote machine.
These updated packages make the following changes.
- tftp has been re-based to version 0.49. This applies several upstream
feature updates and bug fixes, including, most importantly, support IPv6.
(BZ#464096)
- two spelling corrections were made to the tftp server man page
(in.tftpd.8) and the NAME section of both the client (tftp.1) and server
man pages was edited. (BZ#501482)
All users of tftp-server should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
