A (192.168.1.10)
S (192.168.1.20)

I do not see tftp traffic is leaving from S

A:~$ tftp
(to) 192.168.1.20
tftp> get file
Transfer timed out.

As you can see no pkt is leaving. If it were leaving S, but A were not
receiving then I would think firewall
is dropping it.

[ S ~]$ sudo tcpdump -A -nniany host 192.168.1.10
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on any, link-type LINUX_SLL (Linux cooked), capture size 262144
