    Hello freebsd-stable,

    I've got a problem with tftpd - when somebody wants to get file this
    fails with timeout messages.
    load# tftp localhost
    tftp> get pxeboot
    Transfer timed out.

    I run tftpd from inetd.conf:
    tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody

    Here is strings from rc.conf about inetd:
    inetd_enable="YES"
    inetd_flags="-s 1"

    tftp writes logs to /var/log/ftp. Here is related record about those
    request:
    Oct 28 11:09:29 load tftpd[77002]: 172.16.3.15: read request for //pxeboot: success

    At all, after read request tftpd is running in some instances:
    load# ps -aux | grep 'tftpd'
    nobody 9568 0,0 0,2 1008 592 ?? S 12:28 0:00,00 tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody
    nobody 9556 0,0 0,2 1008 592 ?? S 12:28 0:00,00 tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody
    nobody 9542 0,0 0,2 1008 592 ?? S 12:28 0:00,00 tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody
    nobody 9530 0,0 0,2 1008 592 ?? S 12:28 0:00,00 tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody
    nobody 9526 0,0 0,2 1008 592 ?? I 12:28 0:00,00 tftpd -ls /usr/tftpboot -u nobody

    What is wrong?
