Sounds good. With that said, I think the format of my ks.cfg file is
correct, but for whatever reason, my client machine is not getting the
ks.cfg file from dhcp. Actually, reason may not have anything to to do
fedora or the kickstart process. The network the client is on recently
changed to 1Gbit. The client is a Dell Precesion 450 with a 1G nic.
However, I've noticed some flakeyness with NIS on other Redhat machines
using 1G cards since this upgrade. This could be causing a problem with
the kickstart process. I will hard set the clients port to 100 full
tomorrow and try it out again. Thanks for the info and letting me know
you have got kickstart via NFS to work!

Yes, I have installed Fedora via NFS, both kickstart and interactive.
The procedure is no different, but due to a number of things which were
different in the Fedora kickstart files, I found I had to go through an
interactive install first, to get a base kickstart file to work from.
Subsequent minor modifications (adding/omitting packages) caused no
problems, and I was able to do kickstart-driven installs via NFS.
