Help with bootp



I am running Debian Slink fully updated.  I am working on hooking up an
Xterminal to the network.  I am using the bootp server as nothing more
then a nfs server so it does not have bind installed on it.  I have my
other machine maped as the firwall, bind, isp conection and home
directory.  

I have a very basic configuration in the bootptab file and have tftpd and
bootpd installed in the inet.conf file.  For some reason I do not get the
bootp system to even load when I boot the Xterminal.  I have even gone as
far as trying to load it from the command line to no success.  No error
messages (that I have found) have come up.  

I have configured other bootp servers before so I am not a real newbe to
this.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks for the help.
