My original query had to do with the CMU bootp server (patched to
support DHCP) under Solaris dumping core and dieing when it received
a DHCP request from a Mac running Open Transport 1.1.1 or 1.1.2.
DHCP requests from Win95 machines worked fine.
The best answer was from Doug Hughes <Doug.Hughes@Eng.Auburn.EDU>, who

I've been running his version of the bootp server for a few days now,
and it works fine. Thanks!
BTW, no one seems to be home at CMU (none of the authors listed in the
README replied, and there doesn't seem to be any traffic on the CMU
bootp mailing list). Does anyone have a contact who could integrate
Doug Hughes' changes into the distribution version?
