The default behaviour for tftpd is to not create new files, i.e. you can
upload to an existing file location (as long as it has the correct
permissions) but you can't create new files on the tftpd server.
You can change this behaviour by adding the --create parameter to
TFTP_OPTIONS in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa and amending the directory
permissions on /var/lib/tftpboot.
However you should do this with EXTREME CAUTION; this effectively allows
any remote client to upload data with no authentication to your server
which could create potential Denial of Service problems due to full file
systems etc...
I checked this in Lucid as well and this behaviour has not changed for
Maverick.
