arp looks happy to me, a non-expert:
arp -a yields:

bagel.compound.local (10.10.10.10) at 00:00:c0:95:d0:1c
horbot.compound.local (10.10.10.2) at (incomplete)
? (10.10.10.255) at (incomplete)

bagel is the netboot-ing host in question, horbot is the server.  The hardware address matches bagel's network card.

Thanks...
