TFTP Timeout
-
OK,
So I have tried many things from this forum and the internet without results.I am running Ubuntu 12.04
Fog Version 1.2.0
New Server from scratchI have one working 1.2.0 fog server in the US and now I am trying to setup a new server in Mexico. I have made sure the firewall is turned of and tested the tftp via command line (tftp -v x.x.x.x -c get undionly.kpxe returns received bytes in 0.8 seconds)
The DHCP server in Mexico is a Barracuda firewall that has the 66 67 options defined. My server in the US is using Microsoft DHCP with 66 and 67 defined.
So far this is what I have found regarding the differences between the working US server and my new server in Mexico. Using Filezilla I am able to ftp into the US server. The Mexico server gives me a login incorrect error. I have made sure the password is correct in the TFTP Settings via Fog web config page. Is there some other place that I can check for a password on the server?
When I try to boot a machine via LAN I obtain an IP address, but then TFTP server times out.
Thanks everyone

On the mexico server, is the fog (unix) username and password correct?
Both the US and Mexico server’s will have their own usernames and passwords.

Tom,
You fixed the FTP problem. The fog user password was incorrect. I have that reset and can now ftp into the server.However I am still getting this error message when I try to boot from LAN:

that can be caused by a few things, usually network hardware configuration

So, I have installed a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 server since I read that there were problems with tftp in 12.04. Still no luck. I am thinking more and more it could be a problem with the Barracuda not passing the tftp server through, even though I have the ip address of the fog server entered.

we have seen a few DHCP systems not pass the boot filename correctly. for some reason, they seem to assume all network boot files end in .0
renaming undionly.kpxe to undionly.0 might work -
other thing to consider you may need IP-helpers configured if it’s layer 3
