Supporting broken TFTP clients

Several TFTP clients (notably those from Microsoft) require the TFTP server to accept a backslash (\) as a path separator, rather than the more usual forward slash (/). It is often possible to configure your TFTP server to work around these broken clients. The workaround will depend on the TFTP server that you are using. Instructions are available for:

tftpd-hpa (used on most Linux distributions)
