Re: [Etherboot-developers] Dropping DHCP messgaes

[David C. <dav...@rc...>]

Ok, in first32.c of mknbi, I modify it so that is also extract the 
nisdomain (rfc1533 tag 40)  from the bootp messages. But when using dhcp 
I find the nisdomain tag is missing or empty string. What is the 
problem? It seems the messages are sent by the dhcp server but the 
client cannot receive it? Is there a bug in the current ISC dhcpd that 
use non-standard vendor tag number for nisdomain or it is dropped by 
etherboot? I just want to make sure what's happening.... Thanks.

regards,

DC
