Hi. I'm having a problem with hashing passwords for use in the menu. If I specify plain passwords in my config it works file: Example: MENU MASTER PASSWD 1234567890 MENU PASSWD test123 However if I hash a password using the sha1pass script the resulting hashes don't work. MENU MASTER PASSWD $4$9qj4qv8g$HQ6Jl6TVrpign78XeofX2OLmfJo$ MENU PASSWD test123

Hallo! I am running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11 on centOS. I want to enable the automatic printer download feature, but are running into problems. I have tried to work it out from samba by example, but since the automatic driver download is bundeled togehter with ldap (which I am not using), this does not get me anywhere. Can anyone direct me to a good howto on this - one that will make things work! I

Hallo! I am running rsync-2.6.2-1.fc2.0 on fedora 2 server. I use incremental backup with rsync, and I have 7 folders that are rotated on a daily basis. At the moment I run backup only one time each day. /home-area on my server uses 18G, and all the 7 backups together fill up 19G on my usb-disk, so I think my script works okay. It looks like this: rsync -verbose -progres -a

Hello all, At the end of README.menu there is : "... It is also possible to load a secondary configuration file, to get to another menu.

Hey folks, I was trying the complex menu from the lastest pxelinux 3.20-pre11. It did install a password file in the /isolinux/ of my tftpserver. Then I try to authentificate myself as user3 with as password I've been tranforming using sha1pass. When I select login, the screen blink and doesn't ask me anything. I reslect login, it ask me for a username. I give user3 and then my

Hi, As a packager of syslinux, I would like to get rid of the dependency of syslinux on Crypt::PasswdMD5, as it does not ship with RHEL/CentOS by default and therefor is an additional hurdle for people on those distributions to use a more recent syslinux. (I am also involved with the Rear project that relies on a more recent syslinux, and in various corporate environments need a recent

Hi! I have a PXE Server witch uses a the simple menu system. Is all working great also with submenus. What i want is a entry in the pxelinux.cfg/default file that can load a non-menu cfg file for the pxelinux.0. The background is, that i have here a DamnSmallLinux that is booting from PXE. it has a own cfg file but without the simple menu system (with F1-F2-F3 and a logo.16). If i move

Hi. I want to use PXELinux to build a dynamic boot menu for a computer lab. Sometimes, the machines need to be in Linux mode/Windows mode/allow the option of Linux/Windows. I configured this all fine with PXELinux. My problem is really one of security. Someone can plug in a laptop with a DHCP server, and tftp server and fake a lab machine to boot into any mode they desire, or even

I'd like to add a user-friendly menuing system to pxelinux replacing/enhancing the default on the pxelinux.cfg/default Where can I find instructions on how to get started? Regards, Conrad Lawes Sr. Technical Analyst Argon Technology

Hi All, I have used menu.c32 to offer several booting options to our users via pxelinux... the icing on the cake would be if there was some mechanism whereby the pxelinux boot could be restarted, with the usual search for pxelinux.cfg/... files... all without a reboot and going through POST. Does anyone know if this is possible or if a comboot module exists for such a thing ? Cheers, Doug

Hi, Using syslinux 3.80, I'm seeing pxelinux.bin hanging after the (succesfull) transfer of the default file. Running a lan trace, it appears that all goes fine until the time pxelinux sends a TFTP RRQ for menu.c32 to the TFTP server, gets the first data packet back, and apparently freezes at this point. The TFTP server then times out and retries (3 times) then finally sends an error packet

Hello, up to now I have been using plain pxelinux with symbolic links (IP or MAC-Address) to the machine dependent defaults. This has been working fine with minimal differences in the configuration files: --default-lenny-- DEFAULT lenny INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/include-options INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/include-kernels ----------------- --default-squeeze-- DEFAULT squeeze INCLUDE

Hello I just tested my pxelinux installation with 5.00-pre6. For the installation I did first the same steps as I did with 4.05. I copied the following files out of the archive into my /tftpboot folder: syslinux-5.00-pre6/core/pxelinux.0 syslinux-5.00-pre6/com32/menu/menu.c32 syslinux-5.00-pre6/memdisk/memdisk With only this files, it was not working and I also had to copy this two

Hi, LTSP has a few people interested in a pxelinux gui menu editor. I just wanted to check if there would be much interest from this list... If so, maybe someone could give some ideas on the workflow/layout and features. The past few days I've been working on a couple of things such as a drop directory "menus.d" that other programs could put menu configs, xml files, and scripts in

Hello all. I've got this weird problem. If I try to boot a simple menu using syslinux's (v 3.09) pxelinux.0 and menu.c32 -files my Dell 1850 loses the keyboard / hangs straight after loading menu.c32. The machine has to be powered off completely. I did some research and got it working by using menu.c32 v3.09 and pxelinux.0 v3.07 -combo. It seems that from version 3.08 on something has

I was trying out the INCLUDE command within menu.c32 (via pxelinux, actually gpxelinux) and noticed that it's broken. The symptom is that the text is included, as expected, but the subsequent text from the including file is wrong. In some cases it actually pulls from above the INCLUDE leading to the INCLUDE being reprocessed (an infinite recursion). (The recursion seems to stop after 20-30

Hi Has anyone thought how to make the pxelinux-menu use ldap or kerberos for authentication? It would be cool because then it wouldn't be necessary to maintain a separate passwd-file for netboot.. t

Hello! Is there a way to make an arrow-driven menu with pxelinux? Cheers Alex
