[Ltsp-discuss] Alternative DHCP server

[Joe M. <jam...@hw...>]

Is it possible to setup the ltsp project and have a DHCP server running
on a different box on the network?

Currently I have an existing network with a DHCP. I  would like use that
DHCP server but still have the clients boot off of seperate dedicated
server.

Has anybody tried this? 
Is there a specific version of DHCP I need?


I tried adding the required config lines to my /etc/dhcpd.conf file so
now it looks like the following.

192.168.0.3 is my DHCP server
192.168.0.4 is my Boot server

#####

subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
    range 192.168.0.20 192.168.0.50;
    option domain-name "hwy97.com";
    option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.3;
    option routers 192.168.0.1;
    option time-offset 134744768;
    option ip-forwarding on;
    option netbios-name-servers 192.168.0.3;
    option netbios-node-type 8;
    option root-path    "192.168.0.4:/opt/ltsp/i386";
}

group   {
    use-host-decl-names       on;
    option log-servers        192.168.0.4;

    host ws001 {
        fixed-address         192.168.0.101;
        filename              "/lts/vmlinuz.ltsp";
    }

}

When the client boots, it is trying to connect to the tftp server at
192.168.0.3 instead of 192.168.0.4.


Thanks
