Disposable Linux TFTP Server

Whenever we talk about a server, always it need not be highly configurable.

I was looking for a simple tftp server to upgrade phone firmware. Either it comes with xinetd or service related things with all unwanted security settings etc..

Would you argue what is safe?

I just need a standalone executable to serve files via tftp and dispose it off. Not as a installed service or xinetd crap.

tftpgui under linux did a pretty awesome job.

Run in the  command line  

kans@kansmac14 ~/Downloads/tftpgui $ sudo ./tftpgui.py

You are given a simple UI to select the folder to serve file and logging.

Pretty Simple and Awesome ! Simple Engineering need to be Simple.
