You have to set this on the DHCP server. I don't know which dhcp server
you use, but with ISC dhcpd the option you write something like

    filename "pxelinux.0";

into the config file. (You also need 'next-server ip.ad.dre.ss' to tell
the client where the tftp server is, I guess you already have that)
