PXE-PDHCP()			     LOCAL			   PXE-PDHCP()

NAME
       pxe-pdhcp  --  An implementation	of Preboot Execution Environment (PXE)
       server

SYNOPSIS
       pxe-pdhcp [-d] [-i interface]  [-l  listen_address]  [-t	 tftp_address]
		 [-b broadcast address]	[nbp_name]

DESCRIPTION
       The  pxe-pdhcp  is  an  implementation of Preboot Execution Environment
       (PXE) server.  pxe-pdhcp	works with  DHCP  server  running  on  another
       host.  The  DHCP	 server	doesn't	need to	be configured for any PXE spe-
       cific options.  This means that you can set up network boot environment
       without re-configuring existent DHCP server.

       pxe-pdhcp listens on two	well-known ports (67/udp and  68/udp)  so  the
       root privilege is needed	to run.

       With  -d	 option,  pxe-pdhcp runs on foreground.	 This option is	useful
       for debugging.

       Specify nework interface	name (eth0 for example,	on Linux)  to  -i  op-
       tion.

       If  the	network	interface has more than	one IP address,	use -l,	-t, -b
       options.	 -i or (-l, -t and -b option) is required.

       Finally specify the path	of  Network  Bootstrap	Program	 on  the  TFTP
       server  to nbp name option.  It will be pxelinux.0 if you are using PX-
       ELINUX.
