@ -26,8 +26,8 @@ work. tftpd automatically drops privilege and changes user ID to
"nobody" by default; the appropriate user ID for tftpd can be
specified with the -u option (e.g. "-u tftpuser").
If you are running a very busy boot server in a secure (firewalled!)
configuration, you may want to compile tftpd without tcpwrapper
support, in order to provide significantly better performance. To do
so, specify the --without-tcpwrappers option to configure when
compiling.
If you are running a busy boot server, I would suggest to instead use
kernel-based firewalling rules, and to compile tftpd without
tcpwrapper support, in order to provide significantly better
performance. To do so, specify the --without-tcpwrappers option to
