I'm not sure what "next-server" is;  I didn't use that.
Other than that, it looked okay to me.

I never needed tfptd, I think NFS should be sufficient.  Could you run 
tcpdump on your server while the Qube is booting, and see what it looks

post the tcpdump traces and someone on here might be able to help...
