Hi Jim,

I'm using ISC DHCP 2.0pl5-7, and am booting ThinkNics without a problem
using Debian 3.0 (Woody).  I've including my dhcpd.conf file below. 
Please note that my address range is different than in the LTSP
documentation.

With Debian 3.0, I'm using the tftpd-hpa package instead of the standard
tftpd, as the former supports PXE booting.  Debian 2.0 did not include
the tftpd-hpa package, you've got to use testing to get it.
