Well you can run yum downgrade on the updates that you performed to nail 
down the one that potentially broke it.

Well posts or not here is a quick debugging guide for tftp which should 
tell you what's going on and note that using ip-aliase are broken in 
tftp as it seem to be in (x)inetd based services in general...

Run

#tcpdump port 69 -v

#touch /var/lib/tftpboot/my-test-file.txt
#chmod 777 /var/lib/tftpboot/my-test-file.txt

#tftp $IP

tftp> put my-test-file.txt ( or get my-test-file.txt )
tftp> quit
