Testing tftp when you're in /tftpboot/lts is a bad idea. You will
overwrite your kernel as you read it. I recommend you reinstall
vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6.

This one's correct, assuming your /etc/xinetd.d/tftp still has
server_args = -s /tftpboot/lts.
Remember that tftp is pretty much braindead and makes command-line ftp
look like an amazing program. tftp gets or puts a file, no questions
asked on either end.
Try this: on your server, at a bash prompt, run "tcpdump -i lo". This
captures all traffic on lo. Switch to another terminal (Ctrl-Alt-F2)
and do the tftp test again, with one change: connect to 127.0.0.1.
$ cd /tftpboot/lts
$ ls
vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6 vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-lpp-6
$ cd /tmp
$ tftp
tftp> connect 127.0.0.1
tftp> get vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6
tftp> quit
$ ls
.....
You should see vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6 in the list. If you don't, switch
back to the first terminal and look as the logged traffic. You should
see some clues as to what's happening.
