Confusion with docs

[pll at lanminds.com]

Hi all,

I'm new to FAI and just trying now to set up my installation server.

I have the Debian mirror up and running, and am able to use it from 
my workstation with apt-get.  Now I'm trying to configure FAI.

I'm trying to do this with PXE on eepro100s.  The docs say that you 
need:
	tftp
	bootp or dhcp

There seems to be much information about configuring both tftp and 
bootp, but next to nothing about dhcp.  I'd prefer to use the ISC 
dhcp server because I have a lot of experience using it already, and 
it's one less thing for me to have to learn.  However, the only real 
information provided in the docs are "See the example dhcpd.conf 
file".

I looked at that, changed it appropriately, but now the dhcp server 
dies with:

	/etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf line 38: unknown option dhcp.option-171 \
	option option-171 "sysinfo"

I'm using:
	ii  dhcp3-common   3.0+3.0.1rc9-2
	ii  dhcp3-server   3.0+3.0.1rc9-2

So, it appears that there's a problem with the example dhcpd.conf 
file using the lines:

	option option-170 "FAISERVER:/usr/local/share/fai";  # FAI_LOCATION
	option option-171 "sysinfo";			     # FAI_ACTION
	option option-172 "verbose createvt sshd";	     # FAI_FLAGS

Do the options 'option-17X' need to be previously defined somewhere 
using the 'option space' declaration to set up a new name space?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
