The necessary DHCP options to set on a Windows-based DHCP server to
enable clients to find the server are:

017 (root path)
	/opt/ltsp/i386
066 (server address)
	<server IP here>
067 (tftp file)
	ltsp/pxelinux.0

This can be set as part of a scope (for instance, if a separate VLAN has
been put in place for a group of computers) or as part of an individual
reservation for a known MAC address.

These settings are slightly different if using Edgy.  Basically, check
your dhcpd.conf for the path and file names, just to be sure.
