You need to run "bootpgw" on your gateway machines. I do not know, if
there is a copy of this program for NT. The BOOTP server can run on
whatever operating system you want to use. It should not be necessary
to run TFTP and BOOTP server on the same segment, but I do not know
how much testing has gone into these configurations, so it is possible 
that you might uncover one or two bugs. If you do, then please report
them back to the list.
