    • RE: PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Another interesting little tidbit. In FOG when I got to Other Information and attempt to set a master password an error message appears
      “PXE menu update failed. Unable to connect to tftp server”

      FYI - I received this message yesterday and did stop and restart the tftp server via Terminal by typing in sudo stop tftpd-hpa and sudo start tftpd-hpa

      Hello Chad,
      There is no file except Default in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/
      What other information can I provide?

      That was awesome! Now the .12 machines are able to get to the FOG menu but there is still ONE issue. I was able to register the host but imaging failed.
      “Unable to connect to tftp server”
      is the error now.

      Almost there 🙂

      No, I don’t even get the FOG menu. It errors out trying to find pxelinux. I believe the error is No Image File Found.

      The gateway for those which will not PXE boot is a .12 address of course and .10 for the ones that will PXE boot.

      The same DHCP server supports both. I verified that one right off 🙂
      Thanks for helping Chad. I really need it!

      Yes, that is the exact scenario.

      The silence is deafening.

    • RE: PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Hello Chad,
      Yes I do have a DHCP server which (if it matters) does have a 192.168.10.* address. There is no problem whatsoever accessing network resources, etc just can get machines with this 192.168.12.* address to PXE boot. Image file not found. So I am assuming that something else needs to be set on my FOG server.

    • PXE Boots one one desktop but not another

      Fresh install, the second time I’v had to do this, of Ubuntu 11.04 and current FOG.
      After the install I took my master image computer and successfully booted into PXE, completed host registration and inventory, assigned a task to upload the image, all good.

      Then when trying to deploy the image to a brand new HP desktop of same make model etc I can not get it to PXE boot. Here is what I have noticed that may be an issue. The IP address of the FOG server, DNS, DHCP etc all are 192.168.10.* but the company does also deply 192.168.12.* addresses.

      The failing desktop DOES have a 192.168.12.* address. I’ve changed it to a static IP address of 10.192.168.** but even then it will not boot into PXE. I have manually registered the desktop into FOG and it does not resolve.

      One thing that I did during the FOG setup is to set the Subnet/netmask to 255.255.255.0 maybe it should be 255.255.0.0 to be able to resolve those machines with the .12 address? If so I can’t figure out how to change it in the FOG configuration.

      Any help, please give specific instructions, would be greatly appreciated.

    • RE: Fog, Router DHCP and PXE now not working

      Thank you Eclat2k, Thank you sooo much!
      I believe I do have the same problem. I am posting my dhcpd.conf information below. I’m not sure of the exact way I should type in the the interface eth0
      Can you please help me edit? I will also do a search to see if I can figure out the proper way to enter it. The sample listed here is missing.

      DHCP Server Configuration file.

      see /usr/share/doc/dhcp*/dhcpd.conf.sample

      This file was created by FOG

      use-host-decl-names on;
      ddns-update-style interim;
      ignore client-updates;
      next-server 192.168.10.195;

      subnet 192.168.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
      option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
      range dynamic-bootp 192.168.10.10 192.168.10.254;
      default-lease-time 21600;
      max-lease-time 43200;
      option domain-name-servers 192.168.10.5;
      option routers 192.168.10.1;
      filename “pxelinux.0”;
      }

    • RE: Fog, Router DHCP and PXE now not working

      Hi Leroy,
      I’m having the same problem as you did. I can not PXE boot anymore. I can’t find the dhcpd.conf file you mentioned. And I wonder about exactly what folders are suppose to be where.
      For example in FOG, other information, the TF TP Server information states tht the FOG_PXE_BOOT_IMAGE is located at fog/images/init.gz but I do not see a fog folder at the root.
      Could we share some screen shots or something. I’ve been at this for four solid days.
      Thanks!
