I have changed the PXE config kernel command line to include INITRD_DBG=6. This drops me to a shell before querying the DHCP server. It seems that with LTSP 4.1, the /linuxrc script runs DHCPCD instead of DHCLIENT. A com,ent says tha tthis fixes a problem with W2K dhcp servers. We have W2K3 servers and I assume this is the same problem. However, the ltsp_initrd_kit (from versions 3.0.15 back to 3.0.10) do not have dhcpcd or the modified /linuxrc script. I have not tried even earlier versions of ltsp_initrd_kit. So, what has happeend to dhcpcd? I'll take a look for it and manually re-install it into the initrd bin directory and modify the linuxrc, but it seems that something has gone amiss here. Surely if dhcpd fixed a problem then it should be in the current versions of ltsp_initrd_kit?
