[SATLUG] BootP woes

[FIRESTORM_v1]

That's a good question.

I moved the ranges around and it does the same thing.


The machine gives me the following error:
PXE-E52: No IP address received from DHCP or BOOTP.
PXE-M0F: Exiting LANDesk Service Agent.

It's an Intel 82558 based NIC. I've checked everything I can think of,
cables, switches, router, DHCP server.  The /var/log/messages gives me
the following:

Nov 14 20:42:50 theratshack dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:30:00:03:c7:e0 via eth0
Nov 14 20:42:50 theratshack dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.0.151 to
00:30:00:03:c7:e0 via eth0

I know the server is working and the pxeboot is working as well as I
just booted another machine via the LAN with no problems whatsoever.
