You will not see tftp on a chkconfig because it does not have its own
startup script. Instead it's started from inetd or xinetd, depending on
which you have installed.

Some debugging tips, use in forward, reverse or random order as you like:

Check that you have inetd installed and running:

rpm -q inetd
ps ax | grep inetd

Then check that it's enabled in /etc/inetd.conf:

grep tftpd /etc/inetd.conf

Check that tftp is listening on the port:

netstat -au | grep tftp

Check that you have allowed the client to in /etc/hosts.allow:

Check that you don't have the firewall blocking tftp:

iptables -L

Check it with a manual tftp:

$ tftp
tftp> connect <ip of server>
tftp> get lts/vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1
