Translation of bootp vendor entries to dhcpd?





Hi,
	I would like to use the motd and boot_menu options with dhcpd.
With bootp is all working fine. I tried to translate the bootptab entries:

.motd:\
        :T184="[[3hmotd:[['/boot/motd'#":

.imagemenu:\
        :tc=.motd:\
        :T128=E44574680000:\
        :T160="timeout=9:default=192:":\
        :T192="X-Terminal:::/boot/wsbootimg::0i0p":\
        :T207="Harddisk:::/dev/hda1:c065860911bb44a2483c096cbd203df9:1i0p"


to dhcpd.conf:

option motd code 184 = string;
option opt_code code 128 = string;
option to_default code 160 = string;
option menu_1 code 192 = string;
option menu_2 code 207= string;

...

host hotmac {
    hardware ethernet 00:E0:7D:70:C2:A2;
    option motd "[[3hmotd:[['/boot/motd'#";
    option opt_code "E44574680000";
    option to_default "timeout=9:default=192:";
    option menu_1 "X-Terminal:::/boot/wsbootimg::0i0p";
    option menu_2 "Harddisk:::/dev/hda7:c065860911bb44a2483c096cbd203df9:1i0p";
    fixed-address 131.71.61.64; }

But nothing happens. The dhcpd starts without complaining but nothing
happens. Any ideas?

Ciao,
	Dirk
