[syslinux] PXELINUX with all-Windows DHCP/TFTP servers?
Hello... I have PXELINUX working nicely on FreeBSD, but I have exactly zero experience with Windows Server. What I would like to do is: Have PXE client connect to Windows DHCP server to get value "filename pxelinux.0" Have PXE client connect to Windows TFTP server to download pxelinux.0, display, pxelinux.cfg/default, memdisk, and appropriate initrd files (really bootable floppy images. Has anyone done this? Without a UNIX box in sight? -Chris

Without a UNIX box in sight? > -ChrisYes, many times even! : ) You can use the TFTP server that comes with Windows (tftpd.exe), which runs as a service and is configured with registry settings. It's usually installed with RIS but it will work if you copy the file and the registry settings (HKLM...Services\tftpd). Oliver.
