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
