similar to: PXE-E55 ProxyDHCP - No reply to request on port 4011

Hello all, I must admit that I am new to the Linux/PXE world, and so, am still learning a lot. I am currently in the 2nd semester of a senior project at Weber State University in Utah, trying like mad to get a diskless Beowulf Cluster up and running. I was given a grant to purchase 4 nodes running this equipment: Pentium D dual core Processor MSI 965 Motherboard Intel Pro/1000 GT PCI adapter

Hello. In my case I can successfully boot up my Thinkpad X32, but the same configuration doesn't work for my desktop computer with Intel network card, with Intel Boot Agent 2.2 DHCP server is 10.0.0.1, tftpd (used tftp-hpa) runs on 10.0.0.32. netstat told me the daemon listen to 69 UDP port just fine. running tftp in commandline also shows it works (retrieve pxelinux.0 less then 1 second).

>>> The real DHCP server supplies client ip address only. Everything else comes from proxyDHCP. The proxyDHCP server supplies boot file name, boot file (syslinux.efi), boot loader (ldlinux.e64), config file, tinycore and OS image files. <<< This is not completely correct: your DHCP server provides an IP and your proxyDHCP server only processes a complementary DHCP

Hiya, Just joined the list and started using pxelinux. Very cool product!!! I searched the, 8+ MB, archives looking for multicast entries. I know that the pxelinux page says that the support of mtftp in pxelinux isn't in the works but I'm not sure how old/relavant that comment is. I have noticied some comments from H.P.A. describing the difficulties in doing MTFTP. Are there any plans to

Hello, i've found a strange bug, here is my situation: - all of our computers makes a pxeboot request by default dhcp server is configured: option option-128 code 128 = string; option option-129 code 129 = text; option space PXE; option PXE.mtftp-ip code 1 = ip-address; option PXE.mtftp-cport code 2 = unsigned integer 16; option PXE.mtftp-sport code 3 = unsigned

Sorry for top-posting but my webmail forces me to. I added -W to the APPEND line as suggested but I'm still getting the same result: Booting... Altiris, inc. X86PC PreBoot, PXE-2.x Enhanced Build ID=402 PXEPreZero: Invalid PXE Server list format. and the client PC freezes right there. Here's the full content of my dhcp.conf: max-lease-time 86400; ddns-update-style interim;

Hi- On the pxelinux web page here: http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php Mr. Anvin says the following: " PXELINUX does not support MTFTP, and I have no immediate plans of doing so. It is of course possible to use MTFTP for the initial boot, if you have such a setup. MTFTP server setup is beyond the scope of this document. " I am curious as to the possibility of 'mtftp for the

Hey guys, We are going with WDS to fire up first to get the benefits of targeted M$ deployments. If you have the "handle unknown computers" off on your M$ Distribution point, then you can still use regular WDS which runs next as a PXE filter (DLL linked into WDS) to fire off anything you want to including PXELinux. The stuff I was talking about before with PXELinux not working in

Ady: You seem to be taking (copy$paste) parts and pieces from different resources. Luke: Nope. The configuration works fine with PXE 2.01 clients, it's the UEFI PXE 3.2 that is having issues with the dhcp requests. The gospel is the Intel PXE 3 spec I'm RTFMing now. No copy and paste, I just started with someone elses configuration file that claims to support UEFI - or at least hopes to

Gene, As it happened I started working on this again just as you mailed me. It appears that PXE-E99 may also be related to MTFTP part of the PXE spec. IBM also says it has something to do with jumbo frames. I tried setting PXE.mtcp-ip to 0.0.0.0 to disable it but still no joy. The bootfile size shows up as zero because that relates to "option boot-size" in dhcp and doesn't seem to

The UEFI PXE boot DHCP/proxyDHCP issue is very timely. I am working on that very topic now. Our scenario is a manufacturing environment set up to format and load/install custom hard drive images in our systems. Our environment: This is a manufacturing floor setup where we build computers for our customers. We have two servers and a client in the mix, all connected via Ethernet (IPv4 only).

from: Jeff Sloan <jeff_sloan at selinc.com> Based on commit: 9314e330 Setting UseDefaultAddress to TRUE uses invalid StationAddress and SubnetMask values. This is in a network with a local TFTP/MTFTP server. If the server is local, on the same subnet, UseDefaultAddress is set to false and the client ip and subnetmask are loaded, otherwise set UseDefaultAddress to TRUE. This is added to

Hello Friends, once more. We got pxelinux run with win 2000 dhcp. It works really fine. there a not problems at all. Now we want to get it run also under novell, but we want to use the novell dhcp, we don't need the tftpd from novell, we want to use a tfptd on another machine (a simple micrsoft tfptd). As we found out, novell does not support the dhcp options (67 = bootserver, 68 =

After succesfully launching automated Linux install using MTFTP, DHCP and PXE servers all running W2K, I wanted to explore the possibility of using the same setup to serve DOS boot floppies through the same PXE server. Is this possible? I cannot hardcode the MAC addresses of the NICs as the computers will be updated every month or so. Thank you in advance, Fet
