could someone please explain to me (or provide me with a comprehensive
link) the main difference between bootp and dhcp? i know that bootp is
primarily used for diskless clients and xterms, and that dhcp is
commonly used in company networks to ease administration, but
theoretically, i could use bootp instead of dhcp too, right?
theoretically, bootp can handle it all.
i seem to remember that bootp is inferior though, and that dhcp is
better. why?
thank you very much!
