The emitted string is "NetcfgDHClient"   ( don't "d-i" )

ISC DHCP Server configuration file /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf
should contain

    if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 14) = "NetcfgDHClient" {
      filename "proto://host.tld/path/to/preseed.cfg"; }
    else { filename "network/boot/image"; }
