1. Make sure the DHCPD on the LTS is stopped and the service is NOT 
started again after the next reboot. (On Fedora Core 1 run levels 3,4 & 5)
2. Tweak the setting of the DHCP server to accomodate your requirements.
    In the DHCP Service Config
    Add the 5 values listed below:
        Code    Option Name        Value(s)
        6    Domain Name Server    192.168.10.2
        17    Root Path        192.168.10.1:/opt/ltsp/i386
        28    Broadcast Address    192.168.10.255
        66    TFTP Server Name    192.168.10.1
        67    Boot File Name        /lts/vmlinuz.ltsp

(In our test environment the LTS box had IP 192.168.10.1 and the Novell 
DHCP server was 192.168.10.2)

What bread is the existing DHCP server?
Novell other Linux or ...?
