Summary: Jumpstart boot server issues on second network interface .

Thanks for the immediate feedback, got me up a going already!

The issue is that in.rarpd -a runs at boot time (/etc/rc3.d/S15nfs.server).
When the boot server was booted, the interface didn't exist (I brought it up
later).

Running in.rarpd -a again made the world happy.

Thanks again.
Tim
