Hi,
 Here are the steps:
1.	Install tftp-0.17-14 and tftp-server-0.17-14 packages from Red Hat
7.2 CD 2
2.	Create tftpboot directory under /tftpboot and copy zImage and
ramdisk_img.gz under /tftpboot/tftpboot. 
   OR
You can change tftp file as outlined in step 5 to take server_args as -s /.
In this case, you need not make subdirectory under /tftpboot.
3.	chmod 777 /tftpboot/tftpboot/*
Or 
Chmod 777 /tftpboot/*

4.	Under /etc/xinetd.d, there is a file called "tftp". Update it to
look like this:
service tftp
{
    socket_type	= 	dgram
    protocol 	=	 udp
    wait		= 	 yes
    user		= 	 root
    port		= 	 69
    server		= 	 /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
    server_args 	= 	 -s /tftpboot
    disable   	= 	no
}

Or if you choose to use /tftpboot directory for getting zImage and ramdisk
image, update tftp file  as shown below:
service tftp
{
    socket_type	= 	dgram
    protocol 	=	 udp
    wait		= 	 yes
    user		= 	 root
    port		= 	 69
    server		= 	 /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
    server_args 	= 	 -s /
       disable   	= 	no
}

5.	ps aux | grep xinetd
Once you get the pid, kill it
kill -9 pid
Run xinetd again

For getting NFS server to work
==================================
Check if nfs-utils-0.3.1-12 package is installed
rpm -qa | grep nfs*
Install the package nfs-utils-0.3.1-12 if it is not installed.
Edit the file /etc/exports 
IP-address-of-host:/nfsdir *(rw) 
Then type
"exportfs -a"



Hope it helps....

Hi Ranjeeta,
 Could you briefly outline the steps for running tftp
and nfs for RH7.2
 We have been trying it for quite some time.

Thanks,
shiva
