Has this bug been reintroduced to jaunty? Neither the dhcpport boot
param nor the setting in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf.d/ltsp (in the
chroot) seem to have any effect. I can get an alternate dhcp port by
explicitly tacking -p 1068 onto the ipconfig command in /usr/share
gpxe (etherboot) also dropped support for alternate DHCP ports.
An alternative method: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP
In my case this was even better than changing the DHCP ports, because the proxy
dhcp method also works with standard PXE clients.

This is NOT fixed yet (Hardy 8.04). Excuse my very rushed comment.
First, a typo
- if [ ${IPOPTS} == dhcp] [ -n $DHCPPORT ]; then
+ if [ ${IPOPTS} == dhcp ] [ -n $DHCPPORT ]; then
(Note the space)
Second. I'm still unsure if $IPOPTS should be in ipconfig long format as
described here: -

This bug was fixed in the package ltsp - 5.0.40~bzr20080212-0ubuntu4

* make sure the right proxy line is set in the chroot, thanks
to stephane graber for that fix (LP: #213927)
* make acpid [ i386 amd64 ] only
Update: also document the dhcpport= option in conf.d/ltsp

You probably want to make sure that the indentation is correct, I'm probably
incapable of configuring my editor correctly.
