OT: pxe server - dhcp proxy question

[Daniel Segall]

The redhat manual goes into a bit of detail on setting up a pxe/tftp/dhcp
kickstart environment. Chapters 9, 10, 14, & 15 should help you out. It
can be found at
https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide/index.html
