Dan,
For using dhcp on port the following will work for k12ltsp.This is a
copy/paste from my dhcpd.sh in the init.d folder( dhcp's startup script).
All you need to do is copy paste this into gedit>save as> dhcpd.sh> drop
into your /etc/init.d folder>then> service dhcpd restart. You will see a
few extra lines when dhcpd restarts that you didnt see before. This is
NORMAL,,,.
Next simply go to wwwDOTrom-o-maticDOTnet and choose the etherboot image
for your particular NIC,> Choose option #3 to customize the boot image
your are downloading,then select from the variables the "port 1067" and
download this .zdsk image. Now your boot floppy will coincide with your
servers 1067 serving port for dhcp.You can do the same seqeunce for
example if you have rom chips as well on your nics.
Copy /Paste the following>

You can see the lines i edited to make dhcp work on port 1067.( I have to
do this to remind myself how i made it work. I'm getting too old!).
There are only two lines you need to change in the dhcpd.sh file
Make sure the permissions on this file is 755 when you drop or edit your
dhcpd.sh file into the /etc/init.d folder.!!!!
Hope this helps.
