well, I haven't seen the entire thread, as I believe some messages must've
been off-list, but you say that you had to disable the firewall on the
server.  Assuming you mean on the same server as the ltsp box (probably) you
might want to rethink that.

Obviously the wizard type settings for the firewall are very obtuse, and
that some custimization is needed, but 'off' (in my opinion) is not the
right solution.  It appears that you need to open the tFTP port.  Off the
top of my head I don't know what the port number is, but doing that would
probably fix the solution as well.  I don't have RH8 installed, (only 7.1)
but I will look on my linux box tonight and try to bring the correct
filenames back to the list and which areas to modify.

then again, assuming this is your home network, and internal security is not
a real concern, having the firewall of an internal server turned 'off' might
not be a problem.  but something to definately think about. my internal
server at home is setup with a firewall, and only allows certain types of
traffic through.  Specifically port 22, port 21, port 80. for ssh, ftp and
http, respectively.

if this is a work network, put some more thought into 'how' you are
configuring your network, and don't just accept the default settings.  Linux
is meant to be customized.

my 2 cents, i'll add more later when I get to my home linux box.
