It is *not* true that the DHCP and the tftp server must be the same. Let me
qualify that by saying at least not with dhcp-3.0pl1-26 on Red Hat 8.0. DHCP
runs on a RH 8.0 system with the following in /etc/dhcpd.conf:
# LTSP settings
next-server ozone;
if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient" {
filename "/lts/2.4.22-ltsp-2/pxelinux.0";
} else {
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.22-ltsp-2";
}
The "next-server" is the magic that points to the tftp server ("ozone"). This
works for both Etherboot and PXE clients.
