Yes, it says client. No, only one dhcpd on the net. The dhcpd server 
and the next-server are the same. Tried it with and without that 
option.

Does it literally say "client" here, or some other (longer) string?
The rootpath given here should be short enough, unless OpenBSD's
dhcpd has an even shorter limit (seems unlikely).

Is the "next-server" the same as the dhcpd server? If not, try
putting "next-server" before "root-path".

Are there, by any chance, more than one dhcpd running in the net?
