Hello,
In fact the DHCP and TFTP services are running on one node.
The server has two interfaces. One is used for internet connection, and the other
is used for local purposes. So the interface is

3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether 08:00:27:5a:3e:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.0.2.1/24 brd 10.0.2.255 scope global eth1


So I changed the dhcpd.conf to

   subnet 10.0.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.240 {
      range 10.0.2.2 10.0.2.10;
      allow booting;
      allow bootp;
      next-server 10.0.2.1;
      filename "pxelinux.0";
    }

Restarting the DHCP and TFTP services and starting them in the debug mode shows

DHCPDISCOVER from 08:00:27:69:73:7a via eth1
DHCPOFFER on 10.0.2.5 to 08:00:27:69:73:7a via eth1
DHCPREQUEST for 10.0.2.5 (10.0.2.1) from 08:00:27:69:73:7a via eth1
DHCPACK on 10.0.2.5 to 08:00:27:69:73:7a via eth1


And it seems that the previous error message is gone. However I faced another error and I will send it in another email.


Regards,
Mahmood
