<div class="PlainText">Hi Shawn,<br>
<br>
thanks for your feedback.<br>
<br>
In my isc dhcp server dhcpd.conf file I have this line:<br>
<br>
option tftp-server-name "192.168.1.64";<br>
<br>
and in my isc dhcp client dhclient.conf file I have this line:<br>
<br>
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,<br>
domain-name, domain-name-servers, domain-search,
host-name,<br>
netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope, interface-mtu,<br>
rfc3442-classless-static-routes, ntp-servers,
tftp-server-name;<br>
<br>
When I successfully run /sbin/dhclient on my debian system,<br>
I don't see anything about a tftp server in my environment<br>
variables.<br>
<br>
Am I doing something wrong?<br>
<br>
thanks for your help.<br>
