Re: dhcpd/tftp server subservient to another tftp server

When I boot the client pc ("bi-19x"), it gets the IP address
150.252.x.y from my dhcpd/tftp server, as indicated by the BIOS's PXE

dhcpd/tftp server, it finds the campus's central RIS server instead.
How do I get my client to get my tftp offering instead of the RIS
offering? BTW, the RIS server is on a different network segment.
Here's my entire /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf file:

}

}

The info I get on the PXE boot screen is:
Intel UNDI, PXE-2.0 (build 074)
Copyright (C) 1997,1998,1999 Intel Corporation
CLIENT MAC ADDR: 00 03 47 16 E2 58 GUID:
407060F4-E21D-B211-8000-DD200AEF63DF
CLIENT IP: 150.252.217.183 MASK: 255.255.248.0 DHCP IP: 150.252.217.92
GATEWAY IP: 150.252.216.1
Press F12 for network service boot
====
The last line about pressing F12 is coming from the campus RIS server.
If I shut down my dhcp server, the address of the dhcp server above is
the campus-wide server, as would be expected. When my dhcp server is
running, I get the dhcp id as above, 217.92, which is as expected, being
my dhcp server.
