I need to setup a small PW 4.1 LAN with PC's remote booting via a
Remote Boot PROM, via a RIPL Server. Unfortunately our DEC Alpha &
uVAX are in a Different building (not connected), so I need to offer a
RIPL service from a different machine. It is also not feasable to use
a DEC uVAX or Alpha Box. Therefore, my question is:

Can I use a PC running (for example) NT with a RIPL service. Allowing
diskless PC's to remote boot from it using PW 4.1 protocol ? If so,
what does it take ?
TIA
