I am pretty far along with getting all the pieces together for network booting 
into "unattended".

My net booting computer (hereafter referred to as NetBootCpu) downloads the 
menu, memdisk and SIS900.imz and all looks fine.

Alas, when I attempt to Net Use to the Windows share holding the remainder 
of the process I get the following:
"Error 53: The computer name specified in the network path cannot be 
located."

If I use ethereal on the Windows share cpu I see that the NetBootCpu indeed 
issues a port 137 name query for the share cpu name. But when the share cpu 
uses arp to find out the hardware address of the NetBootCpu no response 
comes from the NetBootCpu. If I use 
"asp -s NetBootCpu-Ip#  NetBootCpu-HwAddr"
to force the windows share cpu to know the connection then the windows share 
cpu does indeed respond to the query but the NetBootCpu still plays dumb and 
no conversation ensues.

What to do/try next??

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
