how to setup FOG server on Isolated netowork
-
if I could ask another question. If the FOG server is running DHCP and is plugged up to a switch without internet access, I should be able to PXE using a laptop plugged up the same switch?
-
@cnbgeren If dhcp is setup correctly and offering the required PXE information then, yes it should.
-
had to take a picture of the command because I could not access internet with FOG server. also could not PXE boot while connected to my router or on Isolated network using switch. thanks for your help

@cnbgeren simply edit that /etc/resolv.conf with vi or nano and replace 127.0.0.1 with either your ISP’s dns server or google’s {8.8.8.8)

Where is that post you crated that documented the fedora 23 install. You had a dnsmasq section there that was pretty darn good, short and clear. You could almost dump that section into the draft link from above.

I’m sorry I don’t understand what your askingYou ran the cat command to show the content of /etc/resolv.conf . That content only looks up internet names from the FOG server. Probably not what you want. You need to edit that file [/etc/resolv.conf] with a text editor (anyone that linux has. Two popular command line ones are vi and nano. There may be a gui based one like gedit that is available to you.) You need to change the entry
nameserver 127.0.0.1
to something likenameserver 8.8.8.8
save the file and then open a command window and key in ping www.google.com. That should now reply with the IP address and a ping response. -
ok I ran the following command nano /etc/resolv.conf but now I’m getting the this message: DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND–YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN

@cnbgeren Your fog server has a staticly defined IP address right??

It’s in the Fedora 21 Article. I suppose I can literally copy these optional steps to the CentOS and Fedora 23&24 articles, changing yum to dnf where needed.

here’s the screenshot with those commands

@cnbgeren Yeah it looks like your dhcp server isn’t running.
Since it appears you have a unbuntu server you might want to review this document. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/isc-dhcp-server
