Hi all-
Off topic but sort of related as i'm sure lots of us use NetBoot as part of our work-flow. For quite some time, I've run into problems using NetBoot's settings in Server Admin being incredibly slow and giving random errors. I did some poking around and as it turns out, kicking the NFS service in the pants solved it!
So, if you're seeing trouble with NetBoot settings in Server Admin, don't resort to a reboot of your server - try giving NFS a restart instead.
Hope this helps someone as I've been clanging my head against my desk frequently over this one.
