The solar winds windows server is very nice while troubleshooting
though, as you have an on screen log that gives real time reports if
something is in error.
Once all is working, have the Linux TFTP available for the phone when it
needs it.
And sometimes enabling and KEEPING it enabled can be a challenge in itself.
Besides, he did say he was a noobie!
Can't speak to Vista , the solar winds works well on Win2K
