Well, the OTC DHCP Proxy only serves Clients that are configured as
ThinClients. Other PXE clients won't get the extra DHCP offer.

So basically, it should already do what you want.

However, you seem to have your DHCP server configured to direct all
PXE clients to the OTC server by adding "next-server otc-server;
filename "/pxelinux.0;" (or the equivalent in other DHCP server
implementations). Correct? - You only need such a setup when serving
another subnet which is not directly attached to the OTC server.

Well, in this case, the pxelinux.0 does not get a valid configuration
file and will fail then.

Is that what happens to you?
