Hi:
   I am very new in this arena, so please excuse me if it sounds like I
am asking some silly questions.
  I am trying to use bootp-DD2.4.3 to serve Win95 DHCP clients and mac
bootp clients.
Looking at the tag number from the source code, they do not match the
option codes described in RFC1533. Also, the win95 client is always
complaining about "no room for
dn" although I have kept my number of tags to the miminal. These are
the tags I am
using:
    dn, ds (list of 2 ip addresses), sm, gw,th,ha,ip

I would truly appreciate for any help

Thanks
Keith
