      Hi!

      pfSense can work as boot-server using dhcp and tftp. This works nice, but (a really huge but): there are some clients arround (ip-phones) needing nfs to finish booting. They only suck a minimal system via tftp, then loading the real system via nfs from the very same server (I know it should be configurable, but it isn't). It would therefor be nice pfSense where able to deliver the /tftpboot directory via nfs. Could be read only, but way more nice, than tinkering with extra packages included from FreeBSD ports to transparently forward nfs-requests to an other server …
