similar to: Q: passing DHCP options to the booted linux-kernel?

Background: I recently wrote to Peter Anvin regarding IPAPPEND functionality, and he suggested I take the issue to this mailing list. I see it has been touched upon several times, after reviewing the archives. Let me see if I can add to it with a good level of detail: When using PXE to network boot a linux client, PXE must first acquire the client's IP address, by dhcp request, then, the

Hello all, I have observed a problem with a diskless PXE client I am attempting to configure. PXE/NFS/DHCP/TFTPd server is running CentOS5.1 and the Diskless workstation's root and kernel was extracted from a CentOS5.1 (custom kernel due to setting to enable Root File System support). Problem: When the diskless client boots and logs in I notice that my root user is being squashed, even if I

Hello, I'm recently stumbled over the libvirt network filter capabilities and got pretty excited. Unfortunately I'm not able to get the the "clean-traffic" filterset working. I'm using a freshly installed Debian Stretch with libvirt, qemu and KVM. My config snippet looks as follows: sudo virsh edit <VM> [...] <interface type='bridge'> <mac

Hi, I had the problem that 'ipconfig' as DHCP client in Debian-squeeze could not get DHCP Offer reply from the built-in DHCP server of the cheap route that I have. The name of the router is 'MegaBitGear TE4571E' which I got at contract of ADSL Internet access service in 2009. The router is not too old and can reply to other DHCP clients like ISC-dhclient, WindowsXP and Vista.

Dear Yalang, that did the trick. If I look in the NAT table of the bridge I can see the generated rules. Probably wouldn't have though about that ever. Thanks a lot!

core and the simple menu do not interpret the IPAPPEND/SYSAPPEND directives in the same way. Which is the proper way? Either way, this should be clarified in the documentation. com32/elflink/ldlinux/readconfig.c: } else if ((ep = looking_at(p, "ipappend")) || (ep = looking_at(p, "sysappend"))) { uint32_t s = strtoul(skipspace(ep), NULL,

Hi all, I need to mount a Windows share locally on my laptop. However, I cannot do this via sudo mount -t smbfs //host_name/share_name /local_mount because the host_name has two IP addresses with it as shown by nmblookup //host_name. (That is, I try mounting and I'm given this error: mount error(115): Operation now in progress Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

Hi all: I was wondering if it's possible to retrieve dhcp parameters delivered to pxelinux after OS booting, in order to avoid a second request to the dhcp server. Pablo.

I have been using PXELINUX with the "ipappend 2" option for a long time. To make things a little more user friendly, I decided to set up menus (text menus with menu.c32), but they wouldn't work (blank screen and corrupted menu flashes by when you hit a key). I went through all kinds of combinations of options, and finally found that commenting out the "ipappend 2" line

Hi list, I'm studying nftables. I'm using CentOS 8.1 (Gnome) and I disabled firewalld. I noticed that a default policy is created with tables and chains probably for firewalld. So I created a .nft script where I stored my rules with a flush for previous ruleset, then saved on /etc/sysconfig/nftables.conf and the enabled nftables service. Running the script with nft -f script.nft all

Just spent a few hours going mad(der) wondering why my menu config wasn't working. It looks like the change in 3.74 ("Add IPAPPEND to com32 modules, especially needed for linux.c32") breaks menu.c32 (and possibly other modules) since they aren't expecting it. In particular menu.c32 uses that as an optional menu file, it then complains "Initial menu has no LABEL

Is there a way to use IPAPPEND 1 on the pxelinux command line. I want to be able to pass the whole command line in my menu files and not use the config file. Thanks Aaron

Hello, If anyone has autoconfiguration going with their email domain please email me privately. I'd like to ask you some questions about your setup. What do you use? Thanks. Dave.

Hey, I am currently using some IBM 3850 M2 servers that we have booting from PXE to do NFS root stuff like updating firmware etc prior to getting the system installed with an operating system. Some of these servers install fine and other servers with identical configurations fail to install. In each case when it fails to start it gets to the following point [ 274.004114] NET: Registered
