You can't "connect" to a UDP server... > - binding inetd to a specific IP with the -a switch and telnetting to > that, to no avail > - using the tftp client to both localhost and IP, both with inetd > binding to all, and a specific IP > > I've tried it on both a 4.9 box, and a 5.4 box, both -RELEASE.

In both cases (4.9 and > 5.4), netstat shows the tftpd process, but never in a LISTEN state. You mean something like this: udp4 0 0 net4801-2.tftp *.* without the 'LISTEN' keyword? Perhaps because it's UDP? Anyway, that's from a TFTPD server, which is used by diskless clients.
