hello, I would to define and unattended process to configure devices which are http-server-enabled, use DHCP but do not use TFTP-DCHP to configure themselves during boot. Has anyone worked on such subject ? I was thinking of something like : populating configuration file from device web pages (rendering this as generic and flexible as possible) writing a script which reads this file and set

Hello all, I would like to seek advise on the following; I have configured linux NFSroot images for a bunch of servers and am able to boot and run stuff happily; one nuance that bothers me is that, for instance, my Fedora6 (x64) (kernel 2.6.22), (and noticed also in some other distros - Fedora8, Ubuntu710), the client boots but DOES NOT seem to pick up the hostname I pass it through the DCHP

Hi I want users to edit each other files, but not having the ownership changed at all I.e. user1 create a word doc, user2 can edit it, but the ownership is not changed to user2. force create mode force directory mode force user force group I know of these , but our share have tons of dirs with files that have different users and groups, 60+ developers working together.

I am in the process of setting up an * system using Polycom IP 500's. I don't want to spend time setting a ftp server for application and configuration files at the moment, just want to use the web interface to the Polycoms. DCHP works OK and IP is obtained correctly. Polycom fails to load .cfg file and holts. I have read the 143 page admin user guide a couple of times...and I missing

I've got a Polycom IP 600 that doesn't want to DHCP. It DHCPDISCOVERs, there's a DHCPOFFER, it DHCPREQUESTs and a DCHPACK is returned, but 3 seconds later it repeats the process and never boots. The phone works fine with a static IP, and the DCHP setup works ok for an IP 500. I updated to bootrom 2.6.2 and sip firmware 1.5.2 which didn't help. Any suggestions? -- James

Hi. All, I've been reading the docs but I'm not too sure when I should run a WINS server. Just to confirm, I only need a WINS server if I have more than one workgroup? or more than one subnet? Otherwise the DNS server should be sufficient, right? (My router uses static dchp to keep track of hostnames for each machine.) My home network: * User-level security * 3 linux boxes with 2 windows

Hi folks, A while ago I setup my macbook pro to run TINC to my linux box. It's worked just swell since April. The other day it just stopped working. The connection comes up and everything seems fine but I can't DHCP a correct address. I followed the old setup instructions that were located here: http://www.tinc-vpn.org/examples/macbook-install/ They seem to be gone now. When I try and

Hi! We use Windows tftp-servers (so I dont think switching now would be an alternative). But I can try to suggest it. More specific, vendor id of the mac address, is what I want to be able to "choose" (if match) which bootmenu to display. Like all broadcom NICs we have would boot the undionly.kpxe "menu!! (I am having some trouble with broadcom (PCI fiber) and iPXE :) And the

Hi I'm playing with smaba the first time so please be patient with me. I want to setup a small active directory on by Raspberry Pi 4 at home. Actual my setup is: -- Router (DHCP, Forward DNS) \- Raspberry with Samba AD and Bind9 as DNS Windows and Linux Clients: DHCP from Router. The router is configured to annouce the Raspberry as DNS server. I configure it as described at:

Hi I have made myself a derivated menusystem based on the complex.c menu that cames with syslinux. And now I need to read a file, search for my pxebooted netcards mac address, and write some changes back to the same file. All the writing and reading I hopes will be of no trouble, but how can i find my own mac address? (and IP adress would be nice). I have searched the list, but I really cannot

Hello all, I used to have share modes = no on all my application shares as they were accessed for read-only. I particularly put this on my netlogon share after someone got an exclusive lock on part of the login script! I find with 2.2.2 that share modes is no longer allowed and I get smbstatus lock entries for loads of application stuff which people should be locking. What is the 2.2.2

Hi all, I've got an issue with C6's dhcpd custom logging that I cannot figure out. Hopefully someone has an idea, or has seen a similar issue. We have dhcpd logging to /var/log/messages a custom header (DHCPUSER:) with MAC, IP and Circuit-ID. I'll not bore you with the guts, so here's the beginning of that line in dhcpd.conf: if exists agent.circuit-id { log (info,

Hi Thanx guys for the help on understanding howto read dmi info! I now have a custom boot menu for install of different linux versions based if they have been installed before (reinstall is ok for users, first install is not), and installquirks like if we detect odd hardware, we add install options to redhat installer so it can install anyhow (for instance hp dc7800 who needs pci=nommconf as

Hi! As documented: http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/PXELINUX When pxelinux "boots" it is looking for this: /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025B /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000025 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C00002 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C0000 /mybootdir/pxelinux.cfg/C000

I recently reconfigured some CentOS 4.3 systems that were using DHCP to use static IP addresses. At the same time, the systems were moved to a new VLAN. Here is the approximate sequence of events that took place: 1. ifdown eth0 2. edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with static IP address 3. wait for network folks to reconfigure switch 4. ifup eth0 I may have
