So I set up two VLANs on my switch. One side is plugged into the router, server (mythbackend), and workstations that would like to have standard DHCP from the router. On the other side, I have the same server (mythbackend) running a dhcp and
NFS/PXE setup, with my diskless mythfrontends plugged in. For anything like simple web-browsing from the mythfrontends (rare), the server does NAT to send the data through to the router.<br><a href="http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users" target="_blank"></a></div></div></div></body></html>
