      I’m running tcpdump on the Ubuntu vm, getting the file to my host machine through tftp, then opening it in Wireshark,

        I’m running tcpdump on the Ubuntu vm, getting the file to my host machine through tftp, then opening it in Wireshark,

        If you’re only getting three packets from TCPDump for the entire time that you’re attempting to network boot the target host, then you have a network communications issue with your VM and the target host.

        Perhaps it’s a VM configuration, or a switch configuration, a DHCP Helper address configuration, or a DHCP configuration. But something is very wrong somewhere.

        You should be seeing TONs of traffic, you should be seeing hundreds of packets.

        To further troubleshoot this using TCPDump, we need to see what the target host is doing. For this, you will require a network hub (not a switch, a hub).

        Place the hub between the target host and whatever network device it connects to. Then attach a laptop or something to the hub and boot a Live Linux CD on that computer and run TCPDump as you have before. Because the hub replicates all packets to all ports, the extra computer on the hub will be able to see all traffic coming and going to the target host.

        If you use a graphical Live Linux distribution, you can even install wireshark directly on it and open the PCAP files right there or alternatively transfer them using a flash drive to a PC with wireshark on it.

        Doing this will allow us to see what the client is receiving from DHCP and what - if anything - from dnsmasq.

        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!
