That is correct, but it appears that there is currently no known way to make it work without completely disabling windows firewall… bummer…

Just to clarify, the setting that Chad-bisd is referring to is found in the web UI by going to ‘Other Information’ -> ‘FOG Settings’ -> scroll down to ‘FOG_HOST_LOOKUP’ and change the value from 1 to 0.

It’s too bad this appears to be an unresolvable issue with Windows 7 hosts. Even if you enable logging in the firewall settings it doesn’t even log any blocked packets… Weird.

try changing TFTP_USERNAME to “fog” and change TFTP_OPTIONS to “–secure”. Here is what my /etc/default/tftpd-hpa looks like:
[CODE]

/etc/default/tftpd-hpa

TFTP_USERNAME=“tftp”
TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/tftpboot”
TFTP_ADDRESS=“0.0.0.0:69”
TFTP_OPTIONS=“–secure”
[/CODE]
…although I doubt this will fix your issue.

Also make sure that you see these files under /tftpboot and that they have similar permissions to what I have:
[CODE]
root@localhost:~# ls /tftpboot -lh
total 212K
-rw-r–r-- 1 fog root 828 Apr 23 23:09 boot.txt
drwxr-xr-x 5 fog root 4.0K Apr 23 12:27 fog
-rw-r–r-- 1 fog root 25K Apr 23 23:09 memdisk
-rw-r–r-- 1 fog root 17K Apr 23 23:09 pxelinux.0
drwxr-xr-x 2 fog root 4.0K Apr 25 00:13 pxelinux.cfg
drwxr-xr-x 2 fog root 4.0K Apr 23 12:27 tftpboot
-rw-r–r-- 1 fog root 145K Apr 23 23:09 vesamenu.c32
[/CODE]

I am having the same issue with the firewall on Windows 7. Making exceptions do nothing. I will keep tinkering with it but so far it’s driving me nuts :mad:

I’m not sure if this is your problem or not but on recent versions of Debian Squeeze you must change the TFTP_DIRECTORY path located in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa from “/srv/tftp” to “/tftpboot”, or you can just symlink /tftpboot to /srv/tftp.

I have updated the FOG Debian installation instructions on the wiki:
