Static ip patch problems

Hello to all

I've been able to run with success several diskless computers with
thinstation 2.1.3.The dhcp and tftp servers are different
machines.Theclients get their
thinstation.nbi image from the tftp server via the
DEFAULT_BOOTFILE=tftp://mytftpserver/thinstation.nbi, so i didn't need to
configure the dhcp server any tftp related stuff.

Now,i need to set my clients with static ips.After searching a lot,i found a
useful patch that David Aubin posted some years ago (thank you very much
David :P ),so i decided to modify it a little.

This is the Config patch:
