[Dnsmasq-discuss] 1. problems connecting to a remote tftp (Jonas Vikstrom)

[Jonas Vikstrom]

I finally managed to solve the issue.
It was not enough to chnage the dhcp-boot option.
 
The conf needed some cleaning up to convince dnsmasq that it is in now way the tftp server.
I removed some not needed stuff from the file I got from ubuntu wiki. 
Most important I think was the "kill multicast"
dhcp-option=vendor:PXEClient,6,2b
 
If I put it back it stops working.
