PXE with DHCP

[Alexei Matveev <matveev@theochem.tu-muenchen.de>]

Hello,

We on our site got a new "terminal" which is a diskless PC
with PXE enabled NIC.
We already hve some, which boot BpBatch and then Linux.

However this new client doesnt want to work according to the same
scheme.

DHCPD says it sends gets DHCPDISCOVER,DHCPREQUEST and
send DHCPACK back. But the client (after many retries) says  that
it didnt get "filename" to boot (it doesnt come to any tftp connection).

The (major?) difference between old clients and  the new one is
that the new runs PXE 2.0 instead of PXE 0.99 by the older ones.

Anybody can help to explain that?

Thanks in anticipation,

Alexei Matveev.
