Subject:   bootp and ``could not allocate llinfo''

Hello!

The new  machine I'm trying to  make net-bootable has the  Intel LANDesk
software in  the network-card's  BIOS. When  it boots,  the bootp  on my
server hears  it, but concludes  it "can only  proxy". Here are  the log
messages (without timestamps or pid):

	bootpd: recvd pkt from IP addr 0.0.0.0
	/kernel: arplookup 10.10.0.3 failed: could not allocate llinfo
	/kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 10.10.0.3rt
	bootpd: bootptab mtime: Mon Jun  7 16:58:35 1999
	bootpd: request from Ethernet address 00:A0:C9:83:0B:D5
	bootpd: found 10.10.0.3 (guest)
	bootpd: bootfile="//kernel.GENERIC"
	bootpd: vendor magic field is 99.130.83.99
	bootpd: request message length=548
	bootpd: request has DHCP msglen=1260
	bootpd: extended reply, length=1260, options=1024
	bootpd: sending reply (with RFC1048 options)
	bootpd: setarp 10.10.0.3 - 00:A0:C9:83:0B:D5
	bootpd: set: can only proxy for 10.10.0.3 

My little  bootptab is here. I  do not expect  it to be complete,  but I
want the  machine to start booting.  The kernel.GENERIC does exist  in /
and in the /tftpboot (it is a hardlink).

Thanks for ideas!
