I am trying to netboot a NeXTStation from a Mac OS X server and have
followed all the instructions in the HOW-TO (I think) but all my slab
says is
Requesting BOOTP information.... [timeout]
I have one Mac connected to one slab and that's it.
Here is the ifconfig on the mac:
[localhost:~] aram% ifconfig en0
en0: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,b6,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
ether 00:30:65:5a:ea:3a
media: autoselect (10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>) status: active
supported media: none autoselect 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>
10baseT/UTP <half-duplex,hw-loopback> 10baseT/UTP <full-duplex>
10baseT/UTP <full-duplex,hw-loopback> 100baseTX <half-duplex> 100baseTX
<half-duplex,hw-loopback> 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX <full-
duplex,hw-loopback>
Here is my dhcpd.conf:
#
# dhcpd.conf
#
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
always-reply-rfc1048 false;
subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 10.0.0.2;
}
host nextstation {
hardware ethernet 00:00:0f:00:fd:fe;
fixed-address 10.0.0.2;
}
Here is what I get from dhcpd:
[localhost:~] aram% sudo /usr/sbin/dhcpd -d -f

I'm sure there is some really obvious dumb reason this isn't working, so
I appreciate any help anyone can give me.
Thanks,
