# MiniTFTPd

*A tiny read-only TFTP server*

This is a tiny read-only zero-configuration utility TFTP server.

It always serves the contents of the directory it was called in.

## Installation

This requires an up-to-date Go toolchain, currently there are no precompiled binaries provided.

```sh

go install git.dolansoft.org/lorenz/minitftpd@latest

```

Binding to the TFTP server port (69) requires special privileges on Unix-style

systems like Linux and MacOS older than 10.14. 

On Linux you can chose between running minitftpd as root, granting CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE

to the binary (`sudo setcap CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE=+eip /path/to/minitftpd`) or disabling

the privileged ports feature on the whole machine/network namespace

(`sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=0`).

On older versions of MacOS (before 10.14) one needs to run minitftpd as root, more recent

versions do no longer enforce privileged ports.

## Usage

Just start minitftpd in the directory you're trying to serve. That's it.
