Hi there, I just gave myself the answer and it would be nice if you could add it to your manual:
Get the pxechain.com from the current syslinux release from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/ (it is in the zip file under the folder "modules") and place it in your TFTP root directory of your main DHCP. Then use this pxelinux.cfg to chainboot to the OTC PXE/TFTP server: -------------------------------------------------------- default OpenThinClient timeout 1 label OpenThinClient kernel pxechain.com append <IP of OTC>::pxelinux.0 -------------------------------------------------------- This will do the trick! My first try with an Citrix Receiver worked great, now I can testdrive the UX of this system. Hope this will help someone else!

In our company we have a DHCP Server (running on Windows 2008 R2 Server) which already sends out those extra PXE information. And we need those because the software deployment system needs it in case any computer has to be reinstalled. I already serve some other PXE boot images (antivirus, ubuntu live cd, memtest, DBAN, ...) over it and I'd like to add OpenThinClient to it. Secondly because of the subnetting in our network, the switches are configured to send the DHCP requests to a specific host. And I think because of that, no new clients show up in the PXE clients list. I can set up any configuration for the pxelinux, if you need gPXE from etherboot.com (which has some more possibillities), I have that working, too. So if this is possible to redirect specific clients to OTC with a pxelinux.cfg, then please tell me what to do.
