Hi Jim,
I had a similar situation so I've installed tftp
server package, changed filename to
/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp-6 in dhcpd.conf, restart
xinetd, then boot up the client.
On the client boot up, I got to:
......
......
..Me: 192.168.1.102, Server: 0.0.0.0, Gateway
192.168.1.1
Loading 0.0.0.0:/tftpboot/kernel ......
I think the server entry should be 192.168.1.100
instead of 0.0.0.0 since that's where my server is.
What am I missing?
Thanks...
P.S. Do I need to install dns, nis?
My environment: rh72, linksys router, dell server,
dell w/s
