Hi,

I'm trying to use AI for the first time to install on a SPARC server.

What I'm seeing is that when I do "boot net:dhcp" on my client I get:
TFTP server not specified

I added a DHCP macro as specified on my AI server and dhtadm -P reports:

dhcp_macro_0906sparc    Macro           
:Include=osol:BootSrvA=192.168.128.47:BootFile="http://192.168.128.47:5555/cgi-bin/wanboot-cgi":

However, I'm not seeing any kind of TFTP Server or URL-looking options 
in the DHCPACK:

DHCP: ----- (Options) field options -----
DHCP:
DHCP: Message type = DHCPACK
DHCP: DHCP Server Identifier = 192.168.128.47
DHCP: UTC Time Offset = -18000 seconds
DHCP: RFC868 Time Servers at = 172.16.0.47
DHCP: IP Address Lease Time = 86400 seconds
DHCP: DNS Domain Name = sun.com
DHCP: DNS Servers at = 172.16.0.1
DHCP: Broadcast Address = 192.168.128.255
DHCP: Perform Router Discovery Flag flag = 0x1
DHCP: Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0

I'm using OBP 4.22.33, which is the latest available for my old V210, is 
that capable of the WAN Boot protocol required? It does have the 
'network-boot-arguments' parameter in the environment, although I've not 
set it to anything in particular. I read an article about WAN Boot that 
implied that only OBP 5.* would have "HTTP client" functionality, is 
that what's required here?

Also, if I have a multi-homed AI server, and want it to serve on a 
particular interface that's not the primary, do I need to do any 
particular configuration?

Thanks,
   Bob
