There's only one filename field in a BOOTP packet, so it's not possible 
to do this. Whatever string you give is what goes in the packet: if the 
client has a way to interpret that as two filenames, that's up to the 
client.

Can you provide a bit more information about what you're trying to do, 
and what the client is?


Cheers,

Simon.
