Hey All, I've been trying to get a couple of the hosts on our ethernet network here netbooting and have a coupla problems... The first ( and major ) one is that the host that will do the serving of the files is on a different subnet from the ones I want to boot - the probelm here is that the router of the novell lan the client is sitting in is routing all bootp requests to the bootp server of capus :( so the server never sees them. While I can set all th values for ip's and hosts manually, the value of the gateway is unsettable. This results in the phenomen that the client (not getting the name of the gateway from the server (for some reason, the standard telnet bootps served by the bootpserver are not good enough for it) cannot contact the tftp server. Sugggestions ? The server I hope to use is a FreeBSD machine itself.. Thanks for Any Ideas..
