(I hope this message is appropriate for these lists. If not, please tell me and I won't do it again.) Hi All. There will be a new release of OpenSSH in a couple of weeks. This release contains Kerberos and GSSAPI related changes that we would like to get some feedback about (and hopefully address any issues with) before the release. I encourage anyone with an interest in

Dear all, I'd like to have a DHCP/PXE server for different arch of clients, i.e. BIOS, EFI32, and EFI64 clients. As described here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720589 What Daniel has proposed (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=720589#10) should work, i.e. Using a file called pxelinux.cfg/bios containing the following 2 lines:

Hello, Im building my own linux CD, For booting I use isolinux. Problem: isolinux cant find kernel. Hierarchy of CD is: /boot/bzImage /boot/isolinux.bin /boot/isolinux.cfg isolinux.cfg file: DEFAULT linux LABEL linux KERNEL bzImage and for maiking iso I use: mkisofs -o name.iso \ -b boot/isolinux.bin -c boot/boot.cat \ -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table -boot-load-size 4 \ -v -J -R -D -A

Hello, I wonder if it is possible to change pxelinux.0's tftp prefix... I want to setup a repository like that: |-- dist1 | |-- pxelinux.cfg | | `-- default | `-- pxelinux.0 |-- dist2 | |-- pxelinux.cfg | | `-- default | `-- pxelinux.0 |-- pxelinux.cfg | |-- default | `-- menu.c32 `-- pxelinux.0 The file /pxelinux.cfg/default would contain something like that: >

I am trying to figure out a way to have a menu item in PXELINUX hand off control to WDS(Windows Deployment services 2008R2). Is this something that can be done with PXELINUX? So what I would like is a way to have PXELINUX and WDS work on the same network with PXELINUX being the main and booting WDS from a menu option in the pxelinux.cfg file. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello there, I suceeded in setting up WDS with PXELinux. Now I'm trying to point the primary tftp server with pxechain.com to a second tftp server. Actually it will just load the specified kernel, which is given through APPEND. After that the tftp client just freezes. Do I need to start with another tftp? The actual used tftp (and DHCP) server comes from Win2008 R2 Server. (Using Syslinux

I know quite a few people have interest in internationalizing the menu system. This is a tricky problem, since have a full-blown rendering engine for the more complex languages (Indic, Semitic and East Asian languages being the main ones that have substantial complexities.) Given that, I was thinking that the most sensible thing might be to pre-render strings (basically menu items and

...DHCP server to hand out different values for the pxelinux.configfile option to specific clients, matching on MAC address or a variety of other conditions. Of course, this means that the config file for that machine will need to know what firmware to expect and thus what path to set. -- Jeffrey T.
