I have LTSP 3.0 running both at home and at school on Mandrake 8.1, so
I can attest to the fact that it works.

So do you mean it's working with RH 7.2 but not with Mandrake?

OK, I'm assuming you have Mdk 8.1.  In /etc/xinetd.d/tftp  I have:

-------- begin tftp file -------
# default: off
# description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \
#       protocol.  The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \
#       workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \
#       and to start the installation process for some operating systems.
service tftp
{
        disable = no
        socket_type             = dgram
        protocol                = udp
        wait                    = yes
        user                    = root
        server                  = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
        server_args             = -s /tftpboot
}
-------- end tftp file ---------

and if I do

$ ps aux | grep xinetd      I get:

root      1400  0.0  0.1  2336 1056 ?        S    06:51   0:00 xinetd -stayalive \
 -reuse -pidfile /var/run/xinetd.pid

Maybe you could check that far and see.
