Jonathan, Thanks for the reply. We've played with those settings a bit, but more as related to attempting to get the client to use PXE to boot. I'm under the impression that since we're trying to use a boot floppy at this stage, we shouldn't have to worry about those settings one way or the other. Maybe someone else can confirm this one way or the other. Robert -- Robert A.

Instead of getting Just a thought.. have you tried editing the DHCP options on your Windows DHCP server? IIRC, there are some options that you can set in order to specify a next-server, etc. Perhaps these need to be set so that the Kickstart client knows which machine to get its configuration from (i.e. not the Windows server that replied to its DHCP request)? HTH, Jonathan
