We have been network booting FreeBSD for some time with pxeboot. But now we would like to have menu of OSs to boot and got the idea somewhere that gpxelinux could do that for us. We copied gpxelinux.0 from the syslinux-4.02 distribution and replaced pxeboot with "gpxelinux" in the dhcpd.conf file. Indeed with a configuration file in pxelinux.cfg like this: default freebsd

We have been using rsync for some time with Linux and FreeBSD, but are just now trying to make it work with Windows. Not as easy as we hoped. I am running the cwrsync client 3.0.6 on a new Windows 7 machine to a FreeBSD 8.1 server. I have an exclude-from filelist, which does seem to successfully exclude the directories given by many of its entries, including these two lines: Documents/My[

Hello, I've got several machines which I'm trying to netboot, the setup is a bootserver using dhcpd3 and tftpd-hpa. When a machine boots up, it gets an ip address and downloads pxelinux.0 from the server, then it starts searching for pxelinux.cfg/[MACADDRESS] pxelinux.cfg/0A0000F0 and so on. On the server side I see in the syslog the client's DHCP-request and the client downloading

I know it's possible to set a DHCP parameter to tell pxelinux to use a mac address as the pxelinux cfg file name-- is it possible to tell it to use the IP it is being assigned as the filename?

We reently upgraded our rsync client from Freebsd 10.2 to 11.2 which upgraded our rsync from 3.0.6 protocol version 30 to 3.1.3 protocol version 31. The server remains Freebsd 11.1 with rsync 3.1.2 protocol version 31. Now we get numerous messages like this: rsync: readlink_stat("/disk/homedirs/nber/bstevens/public_html/old/test/press reaction/Foreign

I'm using syslinux 4.04 with dynamically generated menus configuration based on info found in various web pages. I'm doing my testing using a vCetner 4.10 Vmware virtual machine. This works some of the time, but not always. I just copied the prebuilt modules from the syslinux 4.04 distribution for gpxelinx.0, menu.c32, reboot.c32, and pxelinux.0 When I boot a machine dhcpd says to boot

Hi Hpa and all I am confused about some function of pxelinux and gpxelinux/gpxe. 1, after I read the document (http://edgyu.excess.org/ols/2008/H%20Peter%20Anvin%20-%20x86%20network%20bo oting%3a%20integrating%20gPXE%20and%20PXELINUX.pdf), I knew there are two major module in standard gPXE, PXE BC and UNDI. And I can understand why I need to produce different boot file for different NIC from

Hi all, I'm new here so bear with me. I am working on a project at work where we are replacing 1000+ Dell servers. When a new Dell server is delivered to one of our remote offices it will PXE boot off of the existing Dell server and install openSuse and then configure itself. We also PXE boot windows PCs in the remote offices so we needed a way to assign a large range of MAC addresses to a

Dear gentlemen, here goes the documentation fix I was talking about :-) The Wiki page on PXElinux, specifically the chapter on UEFI at the end of that page: https://wiki.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX#UEFI ...contains a few examples of ISC DHCPd configuration. The stumbling block for me was the syntax of these "if" scopes: if option architecture-type = 9 { filename

Hi, Is there anything that controls the speed with which pxelinux.0 (4.03) enumerates the files in .../pxelinux.cfg before it reaches the .../pxelinux.cfg/default file ? pxelinux.cfg/01-00-50-56-ba-48-0e pxelinux.cfg/AC12B2D9 pxelinux.cfg/AC12B2D pxelinux.cfg/AC12B2 pxelinux.cfg/AC12B pxelinux.cfg/AC12 pxelinux.cfg/AC1 pxelinux.cfg/AC

We've been successfully installing Linux using pxelinux to bootstrap our Linux (CentOS) installs for many years, but we are about to take delivery of hardware that doesn't have legacy BIOS boot support for internal drives - so I'm making my first foray into the world of EFI - and can _almost_ get it all to work, but hit an issue that I'm not sure how to 'fix' ...

We have one brand new HP EPC-43 which can see all the Windows boxes, but not the Samba shares on the Unix server. We have many other Windows machines of all vintages including 95, 98, 98se, NT, 2000, ME and XP which can see each other and the Samba server. The HP runs XP, but we have other XP boxes which have no difficulty with Samba. We have a simple network with no domain controller, just
