    Most modern linux OS now support dnsmasq v 2.76 or later. If the FOG admin select N to install isc-dhcp server then the fog installer should ask if you want to install dnsmasq server with some verbiage related to if you have an unmodifiable dhcp server but still need to pxe boot, do you want to install the dnsmasq server? If installing the actual dnsmasq server is problematic the fog installer could at least drop a the fully configured conf file for dnsmasq in the proper location and tell the FOG admin that the dnsmasq binaries should be installed by hand after the fog install is done. (or something like that).

    We have a fully vetted dnsmaq server configuration and performing a text replace with the IP address should be trivial for the installer.

    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!

      I like the idea of dropping a fully configured conf file into place. If it’s there beforehand, would the installation of dnsmasq overwrite it?

        My vote for this!

        Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

          I’m on board for this as well, though wouldn’t mind some help in implementing.

            installation of dnsmasq overwrite it

            We could name it fogltsp.conf or just fog.conf and place it in the /etc/dnsmasq.d directory. In my instructions I say to name it ltsp.conf but the ltsp actually came from the Linux Terminal Server Project so the name is really arbitrary. If we continue on with ltsp then we can don’t touch it if it already exists in that directory otherwise if its absent then create it. If we change the name to fog.conf then we may need to move/rename ltsp.conf (or actually just rename ltsp.conf to fog.conf) and call it good.

              Sure, I will! There is no rush yet. I am working on making the move from 1.5.x to 1.6.x first and then we’ll look into all the feature requests opened lately.
