I think so.  Just want to make sure I'm clear.  The file is currently here:

[root at localhost ole]# ls /tftpboot/
elilo-3.6-ia64.efi  images  menu.c32  pxelinux.0  pxelinux.cfg

So if I put "pxelinux.0" for the filename option it should resolve correctly right?

I'll try to nuke the system and profile I added to see whether that caused the hiccup.  It was syncing fine before that.  Otherwise I'll start from scratch.

Thanks!
