I've added the following rules to logcheck based on the log messages you
provided:

^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ in.tftpd\[[0-9]+\]: connect from
[._[:alnum:]-]+ \([.[:digit:]]+\)$
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ tftpd\[[0-9]+\]: tftpd: trying to get
file: [^[:space:]]+$

They'll be included in the next release. In future, if you make local
additions to the logcheck rules you should prefix the filename with
'local-' to ensure they are not overwritten when upgrading.

Thanks for your bug report,
