Thanks for the reply.  The directory is set up in the way you suggest.
I have tried setting the verbose option on tftp.  It shows the request of
pxelinux.0 and then nothing

the tftp directory needs to be:

<tftproot>/
<tftproot>/pxelinux.0
<tftproot>/pxelinux.cfg/
<tftproot>/pxelinux.cfg/default

is that what you have?  You might also want to turn on debugging on the
tftp server itself.  If your running tftp-hpa add -vv to the command
line arguments (if your running fedora core 5 than you would want to
look in /etc/xinetd.d/tftp)
