TLingenfelter-
 One thought, you said teh network already ahd a dhcp server. A given
physical subnet can really only have one dhcp server on it. You may be
confliciting with your orginal dhcp server if you are also running a
dhcp server on the LTSP server. You can input all the data  for
booting your client in to the existing dhcp server making sure you
point it to the correct LTSP server and all.

   As to why you can not see the dhcpd.conf as root, I would guess
permission error of some kind.
