- Hi Dan,
-
- Sorry to post to the net, but mail to both of your email addresses bounced.
-
- I have a patched version of PCroute v2.23 that both solves the bootp problem
- and works fine in the brouter configuration. There are also some other
- optional added features. I'm willing to send you context diff's based on the
- v2.23 source if you'd like to look it over.
