If you are using xinetd, you can alternatively use chkconfig to conveniently enable and disable tftp service. Keep in mind that this only works while xinetd is running. chkconfig tftpd off chkconfig tftpd on However, why don't you use TCP wrappers and only allow access to the tftpd port from your local subnet? I think iptables can do this too.
