Hi.  I'm trying to netboot a NeXT from a dhcp/tftp server.  It looks
like I'm getting the RRQs from the NeXT, but the server isn't
responding.  I'm wondering if this is due to the vm=auto setting that is
specified in the HOW-TO for bootp.  Anyone know?  Here's a bit of the
tcpdump...

16:28:20.386112 arp who-has 207.107.26.17 tell seka.netbsd.canuck.com
16:28:21.138930 207.107.26.17.1555 > seka.netbsd.canuck.com.tftp: [no cksum] 24 RRQ "netboot.next68k" (ttl 255, id 0)

Any ideas?
BTW, I'd appreciate being cc'ed as I don't think I'm subscribed to this
list (yet).

Thanks,
