The 'http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${net0/mac}' worked perfectly! 

Thanks for the help!

Good day Marty, 

I've been blocked by Steve's ISP as a spammer. Would you possibly be 
inclined to forward it on to him? If so, I appreciate it! If not, 
perhaps he'll never know... Heheh. 

Take care,

Good day Steve, 

I'm familiar with this NIC, the "NetXen Phantom," originally. 

Would you care to share your "boot.cfg" file, which I suspect is a gPXE 
script? 

By the way, you might consider the convention of naming gPXE scripts 
with the .gpxe filename extension, to avoid confusion when receiving 
assistance. The .cfg extension brings to mind a Syslinux config-file, 
for me. "boot.gpxe" seems nice. :) 

If you use something like: 

chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${mac} 

in your script, you might consider other combinations such as: 

chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${netX/mac} 
chain http://webserver/getgpxeconf.asp?hwaddr=${net0/mac}
