Is your LTS and dhcp server the same box? If they are different, does your dhcp server point to your LTS? Dumb question I know but I've managed to type it wrong before.
I know that I've had random issues with tftp timeouts when this was the case. To fix the situation I setup ProxyDhcp (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP) and that resolved the issue. Before I moved to setting the proxy dhcp in a live environment, I setup my dhcp server as a TFTP server and copied the tftp files off the LTS and moved them to the dhcp server. This was a quick fix but it helped me confirm what was wrong.

Unfortunately, I've already got the 'next-server' linie in my dhcpd.conf file. So that's not to blame. - I'm now looking into odd reasons like a funny switch in the network..and stuff like that. -- ------------------------------ Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
