Voila le mail que j'ai envoyé a la mailingg list de pxelinux
j'ai la fleme de traduire, je pense que vous comprendrez ;)
donc vala, si jamais vous avez deja eu le problème ou une idée...

Code:
 Hello !

I'm french, my english is bad :-(

I want to boot a computer by network which have a 3Com network card. So I use isc-DHCP, TFTP-hpa and PXELinux.
The computer start, make a dhcp request, receive the configuration.
The next step is to contact the tftp server to get pxelinux.0 and the configuration.

Stop me if I made an error ;)

So, in the network I want to use it, there is a dhcp server, which cannot do tftp server (his name is packa). And I have another computer which have a tftp server and that's all on it (his name is srvbck). And there is a last one which is the client and have the name vmware (not because of the software)

At the boot, dialogs are like that (first are up, last are down):

        SRVBCK                      PACKA                VMWARE
                                                                      DHCP REQ
                                        DHCP ACK
                                                                      TFTP REQ
                                                                      pxelinux.0
                                       TFTP SEND
                                        pxelinux.0
                                                                      TFTP REQ
                                                                pxelinux config files
     TFTP SEND
pxelinux config files

And go on....

You can see here that the dhcp dialog is good
but the tftp one is not :
the request for the file pxelinux.0 is to packa and not to srvbck (the problem is here)
and the config files are ask to srvbck (and that's good)

Here is the /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf important lines :
ddns-update-style none;
option domain-name "isaac.ftrd";
log-facility local7;

subnet  193.252.239.16  netmask                 255.255.255.240 {
        option         broadcast-address        193.252.239.31;
        option         routers                  193.252.239.26;      -----> IP Adress of srvbck
        option         subnet-mask              255.255.255.240;
        option         domain-name-servers      193.252.239.27;      -----> IP Adress of packa
        allow          bootp;
        allow          booting;
        default-lease-time       600;
        max-lease-time           7200;
        option tftp-server-name "193.252.239.26";
        next-server             193.252.239.26;
        filename                "/pxelinux.0";
        option ntp-servers      193.252.239.27;

        option vendor-class-identifier "PXEClient";
        option vendor-encapsulated-options 09:0f:80:00:0c:4e:65:74:77:6f:72:6b:20:62:6f:6f:74:0a:07:00:50:72:6f:6d:70:74:06:01:02:08:03:80:00:00:47:04:80:00:00:00:ff;

        host vmware {
                hardware        ethernet        00:04:75:7D:8D:80;
                fixed-address   193.252.239.28;         -----> IP Adress of vmware
                option  host-name       "vmware";
        }
}


You can see that the option next-server is place in the goal that vmware contact srvbck for the tftp transfert, but srvbck is contact on the second transfert (after pxelinux.0)

Is it a bug ? Is it a 3Com pxe client bug ?
How can I resolv the problem ?
I really cannot put a tftpserver on the same computer which serv the dhcpd.

Thanks
Beber
