Hi, I have a Linux server at ip address 10.215.144.7 running DHCP, TFTP and syslinux. DHCP config contains the following: next-server 10.215.144.7; filename "/pxe/syslinux/pxelinux.0"; and the 'default' pxelinux.cfg contains: LABEL altiris ??? MENU LABEL ^7. Altiris ??? COM32 pxechn.c32 ??? APPEND 10.215.144.60::/BStrap/x86pc/BStrap.0 When a PXE client boots in my network

Sorry for top-posting but my webmail forces me to. I added -W to the APPEND line as suggested but I'm still getting the same result: Booting... Altiris, inc. X86PC PreBoot, PXE-2.x Enhanced Build ID=402 PXEPreZero: Invalid PXE Server list format. and the client PC freezes right there. Here's the full content of my dhcp.conf: max-lease-time 86400; ddns-update-style interim;

I can see Oracle has packages for RedHad 5 but not for 6... Should I install the rpm for redhad even though they are built against 5? Or should I install the generic rpm package from Oracle? anyone knows the differences? Thanks in advance Regards, Marc Deop

This is what I'm seeing on my DHCP server: # tcpdump -i eth0 -vvv -s 1500 '(port 67 or port 68)' tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 1500 bytes 13:24:05.679950 IP (tos 0x0, ttl? 20, id 0, offset 0, flags [none], proto: UDP (17), length: 576) 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: [udp sum ok] BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 00:24:54:d9:d4:2f (oui

Hello All. I have few networks with Tivoli Provision Manager (http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/downloads/tiv/pmfos/?S_TACT=105AGX28&S_CMP=TRIALS ), Altiris (http://www.symantec.com/business/deployment-solution) and WDS (on W2008Stdx32). I successfully expand WDS functionally with pxelinux (4.03).I really like how pxelinux working. Server who respond on client request is on Windows 2008

Hello All. Yesterday I?m trying another ways but without luck. Issue still exist ? Please help. Is it possible to rewrite DHCP setting for sanboot.c32 after gpxelinux.0 load? Will be nice to have this possibility because: 1. DHCP can be ?black box?. 2. DHCP admin not available. 3. PXE server rewrite dhcp setting. I cannot boot from cdrom after pxe(gpxelinux.0) ? please help. LABEL Windows 7

I'm supposing it's a string or array. Option 69 is "SMTP server" which really doesn't make any sense... -hpa

I just compiled R-1.1.0 on two systems, redhat 5.2 (sparse) and suse 6.3 (loaded) . On redhad I got x11 support yes on suse I got x11support no. I cannot figure out the difference ./configure gives in both cases Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/local C compiler: gcc -mieee-fp -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -g -O2 FORTRAN compiler: g77 -g -O2 X11

I hope that someone can help me with this: I hav always used Samba by installing the binaries. That has worked well. But now I need the SSL-option - so I have to install it from the bottom. I use redhad 6.0 - and samba 2.0.6. First I removed the rpm of the existing installation(and deleted the smb.conf in /etc). Then I gunziped/untared the file in tmp. In the source directory I did the

Hi, I cannot compile R with shared library. I am using Redhad Linux on Dell hardware. Here''s what I am doing: I set ?PICFLAGS in config.site file: CPICFLAGS=-fPIC FPICFLAGS=-fPIC and issue: ./configure --enable-R-shlib --prefix=$HOME/newR make configure finishes with no complaints, the last informative line being: Options enabled: shared R library, shared BLAS, R

Hi, still got the problem of NT slow logon, what am I doing wrong? This is the situation: Samba running on Unixware 2.1.1, SVR4 and RedHad. Win95 and smbclient in any unix works fine. A win NT machine sees the workgroup, but browsing to it takes a LONG time ( 3 or 4 minutes or so..) and when the machines appear ( redhat, unixware and SVR4 ) it again takes a lot of time to log on, after that

Hey, > check-update sounds better than putting yum update in a cron job. Only a mad man would do that! Are the cAos and CentOS releases THAT BAD? > Much better to run a daily cron which rsyncs your local patch repository. So must one have your own local repository to avoid being labeled as a madman? In which one of the RedHad reference books can I find this? Just curious. Rick

Hi We deployed centos 4.8 on HP DL380 G2, G3 and G4 servers (same number of cpus). The same software is running on all servers. Only on G2 servers we see a low cpu utilization combined with high load-average. For example, during the same time of day and same workload, on a G2 I see a l-avg of 11.31 and on a G4 I see 2.68. The server response time seems unchanged and we don't have any problem

I have been running Fedora for a number of years and have decided that for my mailserver system (which doubles as a small time web server) I want to go to an OS that has a supported lifespan of more than a year, especially since this machine has in the past been up longer than a year without reboots. The machine that it will ultimately host the OS is a dual processor P3 machine with 2GB of
