Metik, thanks a lot for the tip, I will certainly look at it, particularly if it does DHCP too. At the moment, I use my ADSL Router to provide DHCP to the network but I've just discovered that you can't configure options in its DHCP server to point to the TFTP server for the phone. At the moment, I have to have the phone set to a static IP address to be able to configure the TFTP server address which is not as flexible as using DHCP. I had thought about changing over to use Windows Server DHCP services but it sounds like ttpd32 would do the trick. I just need to decide whether I want all of my machines to rely on getting their IP address from another PC - it feels like having DHCP in the router is more robust.

If you are using Windows XP (or Vista for that matter), you may want to look at tftpd32. Its more compact and uses less memory than Solarwinds yet provides not only a tftp server but a dhcp and syslog server as well.
In the past, I've use it to upgrade, install, and troubleshoot a variety of gear (dslams, routers, softswitches, SIP endpoints, etc.) when a dedicated server was not available.

Hi
I run the SolarWinds TFTP server alongside FS on my small installation - works nicely!

Hi,
I have just about got FreeSwitch working with a Cisco 7940 Phone. After much reading, I worked out that I needed a TFTP server on the network that would supply the phone with it's SIP personality and config etc. I have been able to get the phone working and realise that the TFTP server needs to be available every time the phone loses power etc. At the moment, I have the TFTP server running on a temporary machine but it would be neater if it ran on the same machine as FreeSwitch. This will be a very small FreeSwitch installation, so, .......
Is there any reason why I should not try to run FreeSwitch and the SolarWinds Free TFTP Server on the same Windows XP Machine ? I don't think the server should put much load on the machine but wondered if there were any other reasons why this is a bad idea ?
In addition, while I have the phone working - I get a status message on boot ... "W310 2 Errors(s) Parsing SIPDefault.cnf
Can anyone tell me how to locate the errors in this file please ? (I have posted it to the Pastebin)
