Colleagues,

I am attempting to chainload a file from TFTP. I have the following
lines  in the configuration file:

LABEL WDS1
 Menu LABEL WDS1
 kernel pxechn.c32
 append 10.14.141.150::boot\x86\wdsnbp.com -W -o 66.x=0a:0e:8d:96 -S

The TFTP server at 10.14.141.150 is operational and wdsnbp.com is
available at the indicated path. I have tried various combinations of
colons, forward and back slashes and URL schemes.

However, all i get from pxechn.c32 is 

pxechn.c32: Attempting to load '10.14.141.150::boot\x86\wdsnbp.com': 2:No such file or directory

and it does not even attemt to send any packets to 10.14.141.150 (I
checked with WireShark). What I am doing wrong?

TIA for any input.
