How to list the windows tftp server directories and files from command prompt?
command, tftp, windows, windows-7
Solution
TFTP is a minimal file transfer protocol that does not provide subcommands to list remote files.
But Tftpd32 has a workaround, it can create a "dir.txt" file for the directory you're accessing. Enable the option in the TFTP settings of Tftpd32. Now when a TFTP client requests the "dir.txt" file, the server will generate and send a file that lists the content of the base directory.
You'll have to use FTP if you want to use more advanced features.
Problem
I have installed Tftpd32 software in my windows 7 pc. I have running tftp server on my windows pc and tftp home directory has few directories and files. I have to display the tftp servers directories and files from windows command prompt ? How to display the tftp server directories and folders ? ``` C:\Users\user1>tftp Transfers files to and from a remote computer running the TFTP service. TFTP [-i] host [GET | PUT] source [destination] -i Specifies binary image transfer mode (also called octet). In binary image mode the file is moved literally, byte by byte. Use this mode when transferring binary files. host Specifies the local or remote host. GET Transfers the file destination on the remote host to the file source on the local host. PUT Transfers the file source on the local host to the file destination on the remote host. source Specifies the file to transfer. destination Specifies where to transfer the file. C:\Users\user1> ```
