I'm running Fedora Core 6, and I believe LTSP 4.2.  Two network cards, one
(eth0) connected to the internet through a router that provides an address
via DHCP, the other (eth1) connected to a hub, to which the client is also
connected.  I can not, for the life of me, get a client to get the kernel
from the server.   What comes up on the client screen:

Loading 192.168.0.254:/lts/vmlinuz-2.6.16.1-ltsp-2 .......

and there it hangs.  It never gives an error message (at least not within a
few hours).

I'm going crazy here.  I've been working on this for three days.  I've
searched the archives, googled myself silly, tried everything I've come
across that looks like it MIGHT work.  I got it working once, after adding
the next-server line to /etc/dhcpd.conf, but then the next day, after
restarting, it did the same thing.

I'm very much a Linux novice, though I'm doing my best here, so please be
patient.  Here's all the information I can think of that might be relevant.
Obviously, I'm happy to provide any other information requested, and try
anything that's likely to work.  I'd appreciate explanations of what's going
wrong even more.

My sincere thanks for any help you can provide.
