      @george1421 The dashboard is up and running. I can access it and all the options. I just tried to PXE boot a laptop to it, no server found.

        @dpotesta50 It’s very very slow though. Changing from option to option within the FOG program takes a minute or so.

          @dpotesta50 Ok the slowness is from both networks?

          OK, now lets work on one issue at a time.

          So fog is the dhcp server, we need to make sure that isc-dhcp service is running on the fog server. Run this ps aux|grep dhcp and/or you can check to see if its listening netstat -an|grep 67

          The fog installer should setup the isc-dhcp config file to look like this: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=BIOS_and_UEFI_Co-Existence#Example_1

          Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

              @dpotesta50 well that explains why no dhcp boot. Its not running.

              First lets try to start it. This might be the command systemctl start isc-dhcp-server See if that gives you a positive.

              When you run the netstat command you should see something that looks like this

              udp    0   0.0.0.0:67
              

              If that works then you will want to run this command
              systemctl enable isc-dhcp-server to enable the server to start at each reboot.

              Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

                That list is so long I have to roll the scroll wheel about a dozen times to get to the bottom.

                  I remoted in with teamviewer and helped the OP get things working correctly. We had to ensure that the dhcp server only bound to the imaging lan NIC adapter and not both. We also found a nuance with ubuntu where it only wanted one interface up at a time by default. Once we had both interfaces up, fog installed correctly and like the OP needed it. Solving this case.
