Hi everybody,
I am having a problem with remote boot to Lan Manager server for the fast server- slow ( 8-bit) workstation combination. When workstation boots, it has no time
to process all packets and it drops some of them. So it sends Send File Requests
again. After several requests the server stops to reply and boot fails.
I wonder is it possible to configure LM server to reply to the larger number of
SFR? The same board boots OK from 16 bit slot. It boots OK to Novell server
also, probably because the image to download is several times shorter.
Thanks in advance for any help.
