boot net fails in openprom



Hello

I have a simple problem with bootp in openprom.  I do not get a response
to arp request.  I am using the following config for 
dhcpd.conf

always-reply-rfc1048 true;
deny unknown-clients;
authoritative;
option domain-name "skink.net";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.4;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;

subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        allow bootp;
        allow booting;
        range 192.168.0.5 192.168.0.6;
        option routers 192.168.0.1;
        group {
                host ss5 { # requires an entry in /etc/hosts
                        hardware ethernet 08:00:20:7b:64:93;
                        fixed-address 192.168.0.5;
                        filename "vmlinux.ss5";
                        option root-path "/opt/nfsexport/fs";
                }
        }
}

i ss5 in my /etc/hosts file.

I have even added ss5 to my arp table via arp -s.  I have verified
that it is there with arp -a.
 
In tcpdump, I see the ss5 do a arp who-is request, but I do no
see a arp reply.

Please advise.
