Who can't connect, the pix or an inside user? Does it timeout? Can you ping the server? Have you allowed port 69? Take a look at your logs to see if it's getting blocked.

I think, and i hope too, you can't connect to a tftp server outside of the PIX to configure the PIX. It's a security measure. Is it to configure the PIX or other device ?

If you don't specify an interface with the tftp-server command, an internal interface is assumed. If you specify the outside interface, a warning message informs you that the outside interface is unsecure.

Can you check to see if it's getting blocked in your logs? Can they ping each other?
