want to implement remote booting for my network nodes

I have two win 2003 server in my hand and 100+ nodes in the network
All nodes have NIC Cards with PCI Boot supported

I want to know how can I install and configure a DHCP and Remote
server in the 2003 server.for activating the Network boot

I have the TSM Configured in 2003 server ...

Vysakh,

If you are talking about XPe, here is the steps you can follow:

Does anyone else find that the XPe remote boot server works when it
feels like it? I find that every so often it just won't boot the clients
no matter what I do and I have to restart the machine.

I've been lucky so far and never saw such behavior.
Did you try restarting RBS service? Did you try restarting DHCP service?
