[quote=“Scott B, post: 28754, member: 15315”]The host OS is SuSe Linux Enterprise Server and the DHCP server itself is part of Novell’s Open Enterprise Server.[/quote]
You’re going to have fun with Novell.
I ended up using dnsmasq. I also had to rename my unidonly.kpxe file to undionly.0 because Novell has a limit on the characters that can be entered for a name of a boot file. I believe the limit is 12. So that wouldn’t have affected the ipxe files.
But that was to solve my issues of not being able to find the file, I don’t think that is the case here, I am just letting you know I too have troubles using Novell dhcp.
I ended up using the f3d24_QUOTA_20-GOOD, my hardware is between 5-10 years old depending on parts of the building

What version of Novell are you running?
Novel 6.5 prior to sp2 apparently has a file character limit to 12, so you may want to try relabeling the file as undionly.0 or something similar.

We are past Novell NetWare and now on their Linux flavor of servers, the base is SuSe Linux, and the Novell “stuff” that was NetWare is now called Open Enterprise Server. So…
Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11.1
PATCHLEVEL = 1
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)
VERSION = 11
PATCHLEVEL = 2 -

I don’t have that luxury I am stuck on 6.5

Long live NetWare, still my fav server OS. You can still keep eDirectory and not deal with AD. Actually I think, even eDirecotry will now run on a Windows host OS.

Thanks for the heads up, My bosses only concern is keeping Groupwise at the moment -.-
You may want to check the read and write permissions on that boot file.
Try to grab the file from another machine on the network.
If it’s windows you need to enable the tftp client in the add/remove settings for the command to complete.
[code]
tftp x.x.x.x get undionly.kpxe[/code] where x.x.x.x is your fog server, you may want to change the undionly.kpxe part to your respective file at the moment.If you want to try it from linux use Junkhackers command above.

[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 28753, member: 21583”]what type of DHCP server are you using?
can you retrieve the file with this command?

Weird that you’re having issues with HP DC6000’s as I’ve got about 250 of them and they all, from what I’ve found, work fine with 1.x.x.[/quote]Which pxe boot file are you using?

Right now I am using undionly.kkpxe from [url]https://mastacontrola.com/ipxe/latest-DEFAULT-TEST[/url] dated June 1, 2014 and it works with the PCs below. Its not working on a HP d530, endless boot loop.

what is the exact error code? that file makes no attempt to connect to ipxe.com

Attached. Did this using both undionly.kpxe.INTEL and undionly.kpxe from code - Revision 1774.

okay,
I’ll be willing to be you have a folder called:
[code]/var/lib/tftpboot[/code] and for whatever reason a fix for this would be:
[code]ln -s /tftpboot/default.ipxe /var/lib/tftpboot/default.ipxe[/code] -

I’m seeing it on other machines now as well.

if you run
[FONT=Consolas]tftp x.x.x.x get default.ipxe[/FONT]
does it download the file? -
