Cisco phones (at least the 7940) are supposed to be run with a tftp<br>

That is my experience. But, if you're running tftp under Linux, then<br>
it's probably spawned by xinetd and won't be running unless the service<br>

Thanks for the reply. No, I run tftpd directly from rc.local script (on Slackware). That's fine - I just wanted to know I wasn't doing something wrong. If everybody else is in the same boat - I'll just be along for the ride then :D<br>
