TFTP Server Daemon

Pure Rust implementation of a Trivial File Transfer Protocol server daemon.

This server implements RFC 1350, The TFTP Protocol (Revision 2). It also supports the following RFC 2347 TFTP Option Extensions:

RFC 2348 Blocksize Option
RFC 2349 Timeout Interval Option
RFC 2349 Transfer Size Option
RFC 7440 Windowsize Option

Security

Since TFTP servers do not offer any type of login or access control mechanisms, this server only allows transfer and receiving inside a chosen folder, and disallows external file access.

Documentation

Documentation for the project can be found in docs.rs.

Usage (Server)

To install the server using Cargo:

cargo install tftpd
tftpd --help

To run the server on the IP address 0.0.0.0, read-only, on port 1234 in the /home/user/tftp directory:

tftpd -i 0.0.0.0 -p 1234 -d "/home/user/tftp" -r

Usage (Client)

Client code is protected by a feature flag names client. To install the client and server using Cargo:

cargo install --features client tftpd
tftpc --help

To connect the client to a tftp server running on IP address 127.0.0.1, read-only, on port 1234 and download a file named example.file

tftpc example.file -i 0.0.0.0 -p 1234 -d

To connect the client to a tftp server running on IP address 127.0.0.1, read-only, on port 1234 and upload a file named example.file

tftpc example.file -i 0.0.0.0 -p 1234 -u
