I think this is VERY BAD advise...

...Best regards,

In this case it is ok since there is no connection to Internet.
Boot to Windows to do that or use inside H/W Firewall.

Sorry, I didn't state my base assumption. Only turn off the firewall if 
you and the target are already behind a good firewall, on a trusted 
network. You shouldn't be running tftp on an untrusted network...
