similar to: Booting centos from a windows ris server - SOLVED

I was trying to use my windows RIS server to deploy linux so as to require user authentication. After seaching the internet I found that it was possible but not very well explained after alot of tinkering I eventually got it to work. Here is my documentation so hopefully others can do it in less time than I, feel free to comment and improve.. ************************ On RIS Server Create

Having the same trouble that Mark ( http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/syslinux/2002-March/000244.html) had over a test platform I have here. Having a redhat 7.3 with dhcp V3.0rc12 and atftp (0.6.2) on a local small hub and a W2k Server with RIS installed. If I stop binlsvc on nt server my network boot run ok to pxelinux, but as soon as binlsvc is started, RIS server always respond over my local

We are thinking of using pxe boot with a windows ris server to start off a Centos 4 install. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks Dean

Hello, I'm still trying to setup RIS (Remote Installation Service -w2k) with PXE Linux, but before that I must say that the mail list archive is a _good_ idea. Back to RIS. When I start from pxelinux memdisk initrd=risbootdisk.img I get an error: No UNDI Driver found. The risbootdisk.img is a bootdisk from Microsoft, which starts a RIS installation. When I boot from floppy it works fine,

Hello, I would like to install a Windows 2000 Server and configure it with RIS (remote installation services). The server is in a domain where a Samba 3 server, a machine with SuSE Linux and Samba 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE, plays the PDC role. The PDC works well. When I try to configure RIS in the application wizard (appwiz.cpl) of that Windows 2000 Server machine, it tells me that the setup for RIS

Hello I'm working on my RIS server; I got a problem when I use pxelinux.0 to load setupldr.exe from windows XP 32bits (both home and corporate) Here is how I configure a working server, then how to modify it to reproduce the bug: ========================= I suppose you got -a dhcp server configured to load pxelinux.0 to client computer. -a working tftp server (mine is tftpd-hpa, with a rule

gpxelinux.0 (3.73 and 3.74) can't work with microsoft RIS (startrom.n12),but pxelinux.0 (3.73 and 3.74) can work with microsoft RIS well. keeppxe can't work in 3.74.

Christian "Dr. Disk" Henchelmann just sent me a nice writeup on how to set up PXELINUX and Windoze RIS at the same time. I've posted his writeup on the web: http://syslinux.zytor.com/ris.php I hope this is useful for some people :) -hpa

Hi folks, I'm finally tired of dealing with floppy disks to control our remote installs and thought that PXELINUX sound like a great way to go. However, I've got multiple hurdles and I'd like some advice before I get myself dug in too deep... We currently have Solaris Jumpstart and Windows RIS running in the department and now we would like to intermix Linux PXELINUX booting. Any

I've put up some notes on my experiences which I hope will be useful to some people, especially since there is so little information on the Web. Perhaps they could be added to the pxelinux site. http://www.tarantule.btinternet.co.uk/ris.htm Patrick

Doing a lot of RTFM lately about PXE. I have done xCAT builds but want to take the voodo out of the process so I can control and understand the whole system. I am new to PXE technology and so consider me ignorant. The current server is a MS RIS server and I am attempting to migrate our facility to use Linux / PXE instead. First stage: take existing DOS bootnet floppy and convert to boot from

Dear All, First posting here... I am trying to integrate a PXELinux boot into my native-mode WDS server. I have found that making WDS boot the PXELinux is easy (see below), it is making PXELinux give control back to WDS that I have not cracked yet. -In your WDS server, copy the contents of your tftpboot folder to the Boot\x86 folder in your RemoteInstall one. -Open the Windows Deployment

Hello list Samba-3.0.8 on Fedora-Core3. I am currently testing Samba as a member server of an AD domain and using winbind for user resolution. Samba is joined to the AD domain and can I can write files as the "domain\user" on a test share. This server is to be used as an archive storage area so I need to move data from existing Windows 2000 server's to the Samba share while

Hi All I have the following problem: I'm using samba with ldap. Everybody can login on the domain, access shares and so on. But when I want to add a new computer to the domain, windows asks for a password (this is normal) and as ever we tried to login with root and the password. But unfortunately , now it says: can't find user. I check with phpldapadmin and I see the user root in the

Hi, I have an HP 8530w laptop. I need ti instal it under CentOS 5.2 x86_64 - kernel 2.6.18-92. The network card is not recognized. I have add the driver e1000e-0.5.11.2 (dowload from Intel site).

Hi All We have the following problem: We configured samba with LDAP and this works fine. As soon as they try to login wit a user who is member of 15 groups, it takes very long to login with Windows and then an mostly an errormessage appears. On win 2000 is the error: There has been made a change to the server. Contact you sysadmin When a user logins (member of 15 groups) ldap shows the

Hello list, I need to setup a samba file server with user access from a Windows AD domain and a separate Solaris NIS domain. All of our users have an account on the AD domain but only some of our users have a Unix account. I would like Windows users that have a Unix account to have files written as per their Unix uid and users that do not have an account to have a uid assigned from winbind. I

From: David H?rdeman <david@2gen.com> if a partition has been used as lvm2 and has not been cleared with pvremove, fstype would recognise the ext3 partition as lvm2. workaround that by detection lvm2 after ext3. Bonuspoint remove long fs list as this one just generates conflicts. Signed-off-by: David H?rdeman <david@2gen.com> Signed-off-by: maximilian attems

After ordering the table of membership degrees , i must get the difference between the first and second coloumns , between the first and second largest membership degree of object i. This for K=2,K=3,....to K.max=6. This difference is multiplyed by the Crisp silhouette index vector (si). Too it dependending on K=2,...,K.max=6; the result divided by the sum of these differences I need a final
