Do you have a next-server line in dhcpd.conf?

Here's a working DHCP set-up with PXE booting:

# configuration file for ISCD dhcpd
# for LTSP PXE booting workstations
#

ddns-update-style         none;
not authoritative;
allow booting;
allow bootp;
default-lease-time            21600;
max-lease-time                21600;
option root-path              "192.168.1.1:/opt/ltsp4final/i386";

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
#        range 192.168.1.20 192.168.1.30;
 group  {
    use-host-decl-names                  on;
    option log-servers                   192.168.1.1;
    option dhcp-server-identifier        192.168.1.1;
    next-server                          192.168.1.1;
    option subnet-mask                   255.255.255.0;
    option routers                       192.168.1.1;
    option broadcast-address             192.168.1.255;
    option domain-name-servers           192.168.1.2;

    host ws001 {
        hardware ethernet     00:0D:56:88:38:62;
        fixed-address         192.168.1.20;
        filename              "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-1/pxelinux.0";
    }
    host ws002 {
        hardware ethernet     00:06:29:C9:B7:73;
        fixed-address         192.168.1.21;
        filename              "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-1/pxelinux.0";
    }
  }
}

Hey all,
 I'm pretty new to LTSP.

I've configured a Redhat 9.0 box with LTSP 4.

I've downloaded the Kernel package 3.0.13 and the appriopriate ROM for the t5300 (it's a VIA Rhine dlink-530tx).

I have everything configured to the point where it successfully boots from the PXE, loads Etherboot and then .... sits there.

From the log files, I see the initial dhcp request, and the tftp file transfer.
This matches the terminal booting with the PXE Loader and then launching etherboot.
Back on the server, I see another DHCPDISCOVER come in, the server responds with a DHCPOFFER.
The terminal's etherboot finds the NIC, MAC, analyses the line speed and then "Search for server (DHCP)..."


Then nothing.

I've ensured the kernel (renamed to /tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz) is listed in the dhcpd.conf as "lts/vmlinuz".

Any suggestions on what to look at next?

Thanks!
