@george1421 thanks for the prompt response george.
As I am a NEWB I don’t know how to use putty. Wish that made things easier, but I don’t.
Based on the way I had configure the install, I unplugged the network connection, and it immediately completed. However, now, I get the PX-e11 ARP Failed error… why can’t this just work.
I go to verify my DHCP and this is what I get (sorry about the screenshot)

@george1421 here is the text of my dhcp.conf file. Anything glaring out at you?

@george1421 OK, got my DHCP working. Also have my TFTP active and good, however, on PXE boot, I get the PXE-E11 error still in spite of having green lights on the TFTPD and DHCP statuses. DHCP assigns the client the IP and it moves on to TFTPD and then ffailes with the ARP timeout/
-
@TTellez I see some glaring issues in your config file.
First, you have Subnet mask of 10.1.10.0 network of /24 (255.255.255.0)
Second, your router is defined to 10.1.1.1? What is this router?
Third, your next-server appears to be 10.1.1.10.Well if your FOG Server IS the dhcp controller, this would definitely be the issue. A /24 network can only reside in scope of itself. so your network is being issued an IP in the range of 10.1.10.x, but your server is on network 10.1.1.10. The pxe client’s can’t reach the fog server.
-
@george1421 ok I know its sunday, so I am sorry for the barrage of responses.
I think I found something. the Fog server IP/Address is “localhost” or 10.1.1.10 but the DHCP server seems to be assigning the client 10.1.10.X IP addresses. So the subnet is not the same. I am guessing this is an issue. BUT, I don’t know how to change that.

@Tom-Elliott HA we posted the SAME thing at the same time. How can I correct that?

@Tom-Elliott is there a simple command to completely replace the dhcpd.conf file? I’ve created a secondary file with the changes you made.
(sorry, really an Ubuntu NEWB here, but I am loving this and learning SO MUCH. Thank you.)

@TTellez You could also try:
This one is assuming class A network, but only issuing DHCP outside of your server’s range to ensure no potential duplicate IPs.

So with @TTellez I remoted in and we got things configured.
We had to adjust the dhcp a slight bit to correct for the current network vs. the network the server WILL be on.
PXE Boot appears to be working properly now. We can even capture an image. Testing deploy currently.
We did hit a snag on FTP.

@Tom-Elliott you’re a gentleman and a scholar. I won’t believe the things they say about you again. Lol.
