Hi,

	I'm trying to netboot a system using DHCPv6 and pass it a boot file,
however every attempt I try fails with errors like this:

Mar 25 08:50:06 localhost dhcpd: /etc/dhcpd.conf line 9: semicolon
expected.
Mar 25 08:50:06 localhost dhcpd: boot-file-url
"http://[fd80:1010::2]/data/chris/FullShell.efi"
Mar 25 08:50:06 localhost dhcpd:                ^
Mar 25 08:50:06 localhost dhcpd: Configuration file errors encountered --
exiting

I get this error when I remove the quotes:
Mar 25 08:48:49 localhost dhcpd: /etc/dhcpd.conf line 9: semicolon
expected.
Mar 25 08:48:49 localhost dhcpd: boot-file-url http:
Mar 25 08:48:49 localhost dhcpd:                ^
Mar 25 08:48:49 localhost dhcpd: Configuration file errors encountered --
exiting


I tried using:

option boot-file-url and option dhcp6.boot-file-url and nothing works.


Is this option working at this time? I'm using DHCP Server 4.2.0-P2

Thanks
