We converted your setting to Novell's DHCP config and it worked.
Thanks for the hint

Hi All :
What needs to be done on the LTSP server if I want to turn of the DHCP server
on the LTSP box and have it replaced by another server on the same subnet.
I know I have to turn off the DHCPD service etc but I want to understand what is going on behind the scenes.
From the manual I know that the DC broadcasts to a DHCP server.
This server answers with some info like the pathname to the kernel.
I am interested in what the pathname to the kernel is gonna be.
Do I have to copy vmlinux to the dhcp server or does it stays on the LTSP box?
Setup 192.168.10.1 = LTSP 4.0.1 192.168.10.2 = DHCP server (Novell NDS 8)
clients 192.168.10.10 /8
Help appreciated
Peter

below is the entry for one of my LTSP clients, I boot the client the same way as you mention, DHCP on on server, and LTSP is running on another (192.168.3.101)...the two critical lines are the "option root-path", and "next-server"
host hera { option root-path "192.168.3.101:/opt/ltsp/i386"; option host-name "hera.olympus"; next-server 192.168.3.101; filename "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-2/pxelinux.0"; hardware ethernet 00:50:8b:db:82:6d; fixed-address 192.168.3.102; } hope this helps
