IMHO
"tftpd should be used as an inetd service."
this is ok for -h (say last warning)
maybe instead of the error msg ?
 ftpd: stdin is not a socket: Socket operation on non-socket
is that possible ?? (i would be more helpful at least)

and the rest should go to the help text.

" tftpd's line for inetd.conf:
         69 dgram udp nowait root tftpd tftpd /files/to/serve
 It also can be ran from udpsvd:
         udpsvd -vE 0.0.0.0 69 tftpd /files/to/serve
"
