[ale] ltsp, netboot, tftp

[Joe Steele]

Perhaps you need a "next-server 192.168.1.200;" statement?

I'm trying to get ltsp up and running and I've run into a little snag.
I installed tftp on my gentoo machine and set up the ltsp directories,
kernel, etc as per the instructions. The difference in my setup is that I
have another box, my router, offering dhcp. I setup my dhcpd.conf to give
the new nodes fixed addresses and popped in the floppy. When the
workstation boots, it gets its address, knows what directory to download,
but it thinks the kernel is at the router (192.168.1.1) and not on the
gentoo box (192.168.1.200). How do I specify that it needs to look at 200
and not 1? Below is my current dhcpd.conf file:

subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
        option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
        option domain-name "fortunemegastore.com";
        option routers 192.168.1.1;
        option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.200;
        range dynamic-bootp 192.168.1.100 192.168.1.160;
        default-lease-time 3600;
        max-lease-time 7200;

        option subnet-mask              255.255.255.0;
        option broadcast-address        192.168.1.255;
        option root-path                "192.168.1.200:/opt/ltsp/i386";
}

group
{
        use-host-decl-names     on;
        option log-servers      192.168.1.200;

        host node001
        {
        hardware ethernet       00:40:05:6A:25:42;
        fixed-address           192.168.1.220;
        filename        "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz.ltsp";
        }
}

host laptop
{
        hardware ethernet 00:02:2D:01:4E:7A;
        fixed-address 192.168.1.2;
}

Thanks

Ben
