Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Alternative DHCP server

[<rap...@he...>]

Yes, you have to specify a boot server and boot file. Mine looks like=20
this:

host WS008 {
        next-server 172.16.0.48;
        filename "/lts/vmlinuz.3c509";
        hardware ethernet 00:A0:24:DA:3D:D5;
        fixed-address 172.16.0.148;
        }
Where next-server is a separate box from my dhcp box.
Hope it helps
