I just installed LTSP using the Ubuntu 9.10 Alternate CD.

I installed dnsmasq per the Ubuntu docs at

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ProxyDHCP

we have a dhcp server on the local LAN that I cannot modify so dhcp 
proxying is my only choice if I want to use the local network hardware.

I tried PXE booting one of the candidate PC's we have, a 5 years old HP 
desktop, and it times out requesting an IP?

Is there a way to test a NIC to verify it can or cannot use the proxy 
dhcp service that dnsmasq is providing?   Possibly a list of know 
working nics?

Also I was looking at gPXE.  Can I use gPXE burned to a CD and boot to 
an LTSP server using a proxy dhcp dnsmasq?

thanks,

Scott
