You need to use the "next-server" option in your DHCP server's dhcpd.conf.

- From the dhcpd.conf man page:

next-server server-name;

The next-server statement is used to specify the host ddress of the
server from  which  the initial  boot  file  (specified  in  the
filename statement) is to be loaded.   Server-name should be a numeric
IP address or a domain name.   If no next-server parameter applies to a
given client, the DHCP server's IP address is used.

eg:

host ws020 {
     hardware ethernet    xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;
     fixed-address        yy.yy.yy.yy;
     filename             "/pxe/pxelinux.0";
     next-server          192.168.0.254;
}

Only if .254 (your gateway) is ALSO a *nix machine running your tftp
server. Otherwise substitute the correct IP on the 192.168.0/24 subnet.
