    Hmm, odd, I'm able to get it working here in the lab, with exactly the
    same xinetd configuration that you have. Note that tftpd wants the
    client to give it the full path name in its request (but doing that
    incorrectly gives an access violation error instead of timing out).
    I'm able to successfully transfer a 2MB file.

    Something to look at would be to get a tcpdump (or ethereal)
    of the request as it goes over the wire. Also, running:

      strace -p `pidof xinetd` -f -o /tmp/xinetd.deleteme

    during a request and then examining /tmp/xinetd.deleteme might be
    informative as well.

    What client are you attempting from?
