zen 7sp1 pxe fails

[Thomas Roes]

L.S.

Netware 6.0 SP5 server
ZEN 7 SP1

4 nic's

PXE boot on workstations fail.

On boot F8 message comes, i press ctrl-alt to force the menu to
appear, ip addres, subnet etc appear and then the client does not get
what it wants. The menu does not appear. After some time the message
"The server did not respond as requested in time" appears and PXE boot
is cancelled.

I made a trace of this boot and see the following:

DHCP sequence
ARP sequence
mode DHCP information
port 4011 communication
TFTP download of dinic.sys
another arp sequence for the server
portmap protocol answers port 18753
RPC continuation frames from the client to the server, but the server
does not answer. This continuation request is repeated 6 times with
4.5 - 4.9 second intervals and then the client gives up.

At the server TCPCON lists a UDP listener on port 18753.

I'm puzzeled. Anyone any suggestions?

P.S.

Another strange thing was two (according to wireshark) red labeled
packages from the server:
PIMv2 Hello[Malformed Packet]
- and -
IGMP V1 Membership query
