[Howto-kickstart] Using an alternative DHCP server for kickstarting

[hibbert, craig]

Hi folks,

 

I find myself in rather an awkward position! I am to deploy a kickstart server into a production environment which currently has a WIN2K box doing the DHCP assignments. Does anyone know if this box can pass back the "filename" parameter to the Linux boxes looking for the KS information on the NFS server, without screwing up the NT request?

 

I have searched for this but find no readily available information.

 

Thanks
