Minimum Software Requirements

The following table lists the minimum software requirements for the server where you will install ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services.

Platform	Minimum Software Requirements
NetWare^® 4.x	Not supported

ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services uses DHCP and TFTP protocols. A standard DHCP server must already be installed---either on the same server where you are installing ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services or on another server in the network---before you install the ZfD 3.2 Preboot Services Proxy DHCP server. If the standard DHCP server is on the same server where you are installing the Proxy DHCP server, you must set option tag 60 in DHCP services.

The DHCP protocol on NetWare does not deliver option tag 60, so it cannot be used with PXE in a single-server environment.

For more information, see Administration at the ZENworks for Desktops 3.2 Preboot Services documentation Web site at http://www.novell.com/documentation.

IMPORTANT: Installing and running the Proxy DHCP Server on a NetWare 5.x server that is already running a standard DHCP server is not supported.
