Do the following (Assuming you are on RH):
1. Check whether tftp package is installed.
rpm -ql tftp.
2. If tftp is not installed, install it from your CD.
rpm -i <PATH-TO-RPM-FILE>
3. The binary is called in.tftpd and usually installed in /usr/sbin or
/sbin.
4. It is easier to change the inetd.conf file to provide a exported
directory to tftp rather than starting it from command line or rc.local.
Hope this helps.
