You'll also want to check the tftp daemon in /etc/inetd.conf and make sure
/tftpboot is setup as your default tftp read/write dir. Check out the man
page on tftpd. My entry in inetd.conf looks like:
tftp dgram udp wait nobody /usr/sbin/tftpd tftpd -n -d
/tftpboot
You also need to make sure the nobody user account exists and is not expired
and that user nobody has read/write access to /tftpboot dir. Need at least
write. Read is only necessary if you use autoinstall to get Cisco configs
down to the routers.

As a debugging tool, can you do a write net from that router to the same
tftp
file? (i.e. does tftp work without using the snmp system?)
If not, you may have the auditing system enabled, or securetcpip, or a
misconfigured /etc/tftpaccess.ctl
