Is there something about PXE that insists that the TFTP server must be on
the DHCP server's IP, even if you set the DHCP option 66 "TFTP server name"
to a different IP?

I have a working LTSP test server, I've put it onto my production network,
but disabled it's DHCP server.  The main DHCP server is a Windows 2000 box
and on it I've created a reservation for the test LTSP client, and set
Option 66, but the client won't boot (No response from TFTP server).

I grabbed a windows TFTP server, put it on the DHCP server, copied over the
pxelinux.0 file and the LTSP client boots fine (downloading the pxelinux.0
file from the DHCP server).

The only other element that might be coming into play is we have Microsoft
RIS setup (on yet another server), but those services have been disabled for
the duration of this testing; not sure if I missed something else to disable
RIS or not.
