I don't find I need to do anything exceptional. I have a basic firewall that does stateful TCP and stateless UDP.

However, I do not use rarpd/bootparamd so perhaps that requires special consideration.

The ISC DHCP daemon with some flags will do the whole job in one place. On the clients boot net:dhcp ..... does the job.

I too use ISC DHCP.  Could you give me the snippet in your DHCP config
file (for your client?  or server?  or both?) that does this?  Example,
please?
