Re: TFTP and XP_CMDSHELL - Weird

Does the TFTP even start? What is the error message you get? Check to
see the permissions on tftp.exe (the SQL may not be properly patched,
but someone might have taken the time to secure some key executables
on WINNT directory according to best practices). If you have no direct
access to see the permissions on this file, check to see if ping.exe
works (another 'dangerous' executable that is usually secured along
with tftp.exe, dcpromo.exe, etc).
