Hi,
	I'm trying to provide bootp service to the PCs and Macs in
my area. I have a standalone station. In the hostconfig file you have to 
set NETMASTER to -YES- to startup bootpd. But I *don't* want to be 
a netinfo configuration server, just bootp. Can this be done? When
I *just* set NETMASTER to -YES- I get a 'cannot find parent domain' or
some such in the console when a PC tries to get its IP address
from bootp.

Thanks!
-steve
