- PCTCP includes a "bootp.exe" which must be started before the TCP/IP
- kernel;
- I've successfully tried this with Vers. 2.0.5 pl4/popper 1.8.
- Quirk: you'll have to configure your client's default gateway explicitely
- in your server's /etc/bootptab.
-
- NCSA/CUTE are capable of BOOTP, too. Set "myip=BOOTP" and comment
- out any "netmask=", "gateway=", "nameserver=" statements in config.tel.
- As far as I do remember, sources are available.
