Changing IP Address
-
I have changed those but computers do not find the FOG server when I try to PXE boot. Fog management webpage is accessible.
-
Did you update dhcp configuration, either on the external DHCP server/device or on the FOG server if it’s doing DHCP?
-
Also, try accessing the fog management web page using the new IP address instead of the name, in case DNS is not updated yet.
-
I accessed the fog management through its new IP. I edited the dhcpd.conf, however in the Wiki, it only says to change Next-Server
Underneath I have
subnet 212.95.81.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
range dynamic-bootp 212.95.81.10 212.95.81.254;
default-lease-time 21600;
max-lease-time 43200;
option domain-name-servers 212.95.4.31;
option routers 10.255.255.1;
filename “pxelinux.0”;
}which has settings of the old IP Address. I will try changing that to reflect the IP address change and give that a whirl and post back.

still no go
-
did you restart dhcpd after you updated the config file? Did you update DNS with the new IP for the fog host name?
-
I restarted the server after making the appropiate changes…I have updated the DNS and I can ping by hostname and resolve the correct IP address of the FOG server. My FOG server is supposed to act as the DHCP server, so I am assuming that it is in the config somewhere.
-
NVM, Thanks for the help, I got it! It did require a restart of the service, and not just a server restart.
-
Ugh! Had to change the IP address of the FOG server again. Not sure whats going on. I changed everything in the FOG WebUI, and changed the tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default, and changed /etc/dhcpd.conf and restarted the service…I can connect to the WebUI, ping the FOG server, but when I try to PXE, it does not find the FOG server.

Nevermind…I made a wrong change in the dhcpd.conf.
