I am trying to support a network that is running DHCP on a separate server to WDS, I cannot get any client machines to pick up an IP address when I try to PXE boot.
Basically WDS was installed on the Domain Controller when SP2 was installed. Not knowing anything about WDS and with Microsoft kindly switching to WDS from RIS a bit of panic set in. In haste the network administrator I am trying to support removed RIS and now WDS on that server is not in mixed mode so the old RIS images are useless.
They have now set WDS up on a different server but I don't seem to be able to get it to pick up an address from the DHCP server and PXE boot to RIS/WDS. I have pointed option 066 in DHCP to the ip address of the other server and option 067 to pxeboot.com - but I am a little stuck and wondered if anybody else was running it successfully this way.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

Does anybody know a quick and easy way to format all machines that are about to be re-imaged so that they don't create the windowsold folder holding all the old system settings etc.
When we used to use RIS it formatted as part of the process, I assume there must be a quick and easy way to do this with WDS.
Any info much appreciated as always.
