If your tftp server is configured to serve files from the /tftp
directory, you should have filename "pxelinux.0"

Thanks for your response, I made the change and tested it remotely using
a tftp client and do see the pxelinux.0 there and can successfully grab
it. Also tested the dhcpd to ensure it truly is working. That all works,
so now to figure out why the client isnt being told or isnt listening to
dhcpd when being instructed about the PXECLIENT stuff, as in the
following:

group {
  # option dhcp-class-identifier "PXEClient";
  next-server 10.10.232.54;
  filename "pxelinux.0";
}

But never seems to get that information nor tftp the bootloader.

Thanks for ANY and ALL assistance.
