Use tcpdump, and watch for the net for TFTP traffic. You'll probably
see it requesting a file like 'C0A80102.SUN4C' (I dont know what the
arch # is for Sun 3 - I'm netbooting an ELC). I dont think that tftp
can follow symbolic links...

Heres what my exports lines look like:

/usr    -alldirs -maproot=root -noresvport ashpool tessier 3jane 
/mnt    -alldirs -maproot=root -noresvport ashpool tessier 3jane

I have found that tftp doesnt like the requests from my ELC - it loops and
fails. mountd (at least on my config) needs to be hupped every time before 
I netboot, or it loops and spawns like 20 if itself. I do believe there are
some bugs here :0

good luck,
