I got 2.76 working thanks to your response about skipping the #define grouping but after much forking my EFI booting PC still scoffs at the idea of doing something with iPXE. Per my meeting with them this morning my next move may be to ask my network team to spin up a 2012 or newer DHCP server, so that we can create multiple vendor classes.

If that is the case then perhaps we have another VM box on our server that could serve this function, just for dnsmasq.
I will keep that in mind. Thank you.

I was thinking about seeing if in the interim i could have my network team provision a new VM for me, and just port FOG over to an OS that isn’t as outdated. As i mentioned in my original post, i am not that affiliated with Linux but if i am going to have control over our FOG ecosystem, why not have it be something i can develop and document, and learn along the way.

I ran through that a few weeks ago after confirming with our network team that we were on 2008. My fear is that I recommend to them updating our DHCP to WS2012 or later. Which would mean it would join the long line of other servers they are working on. The whopping 7 total staff that we have in our entire IT dept.

I am currently in charge of our FOG server after the departure of our former network admin, and anything i have done to the server has been done with a little luck and a little bit of guessing. I am barely competent with Linux so please keep that in mind.

We are attempting to use EFI on our newer computers for various reasons, and we are struggling with the transition from undionly.kpxe to ipxe.efi or something to that effect. I have full access to the FOG server but no access to the DHCP settings as I am one of my institutions technicians and not in the network dept. I worked with one of the network techs to change option 067 on WS2008, as i updated .fogsettings on my end to no avail. Is there more work that needs to be done to manually change over from undionly.kpxe to ipxe.efi?

I searched around for a while before coming across the idea of DNSMASQ (https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=ProxyDHCP_with_dnsmasq).

I ran the steps, modifying syntax where needed for RHEL, and then ran into a snag on compiling dnsmasq 2.79.

Are these errors being thrown because RHEL 6.9 does not support that version of dnsmasq?
I ask that because of the vulnerability update information found here: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2839 references 2.48 as the version and not 2.76 as seen here: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2836

I grabbed 2.79 because it is the latest version, but i would love to get even 2.76 working because of the EFI support.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
