@Wayne-Workman I actually got it working now, the dhcp and FOG are now communicating.
Issue is now that I get "Could not boot: no such file or directory (http:ipxe.org/2d12603b) as an error when the client tries to boot into the FOG.

@Tom-Elliott I made a reservation in DHCP for the FOG server, so that it picks up 10.10.1.2, subnets match.

It is not a VM, I used sudo ufw disable.

The DHCP server is Windows 2k8 R2, Fog 1.2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04

Hello All,
So I’ve created my own little network and got DHCP up and running properly, I have the FOG server installed and I can ping the DHCP server (10.10.1.1), but when I got over to my DHCP server, I receive a host unreachable error when trying to ping the FOG server (10.10.1.2).

Any idea what the issue might be? I know I have the DHCP running properly, everything checks out, I have both firewalls turned off on the DHCP and FOG server.

@Wayne-Workman Yes.
I’m running tcpdump on the Ubuntu vm, getting the file to my host machine through tftp, then opening it in Wireshark,

@Wayne-Workman Ah, attention to detail… sorry about that.
I’m assuming I have to look at the first one.

I’m not too sure how to read the packets.

@Wayne-Workman I’m only getting one piece of info when filtering the mac address:

Am I doing something wrong?

@Wayne-Workman Also, I was able to get the undionly.0 file through tftp on my windows 7 machine.

@Wayne-Workman So I got the issue.pcap file to work. It was a matter of putting
tftp -i 10.10.8.155 get issue.pcap instead of
tftp 10.10.8.155 get issue.pcap (Aiii yaaaa )
I’m not seeing any tftp protocols in the wireshark GUI, I’m assuming that it means my tftp config file isn’t setup properly.

@Wayne-Workman I’ve been following the website you forwarded to me, but I keep getting the 425 error with ftp.
I can exchange files via tftp just fine. I’m able to connect to ftp://ipaddress as well.
I’ve changed both the tftp conf file, the ftp conf file, changed permissions, and firewall is turned off, but I still get the same error.
Any advice?

@Wayne-Workman Yeah, still no luck.
Although I got another error message PXE-E32.
What does your tftp-hpa file look like?

@Wayne-Workman I’m also just trying to run WireShark on my VM nic cards from my Windows 7 machine, think that will work?

@Wayne-Workman So I have an older version of WireShark (1.10.4) I’ve set tftp in binary mode:
tftp
tftp> binary
Ran this command:
sudo tcpdump -w issue.pcap -i eth0 -c 65535
But I still get the same issue, The packet limit error on WireShark is capped at 65535, but the command in Ubuntu still runs.
Am I doing this correct? I have to break the command with Ctrl+C to get it to stop and it still goes over by many bytes.

@Wayne-Workman thanks for the updated
@cml I’ve followed that step, but I still get the same issue.

@Wayne-Workman unfortunately the issue is still the same.
Is there a way to cap the file when using TCPdump? I’ve tried -s 65535 but I still get the same result.

@Wayne-Workman Thanks again Wayne, wish I could focus on this project, but I’m also busy with HelpDesk tickets. Sorry for the late reply, but I managed to get the file to my windows 7 PC, but I keep getting this error when I open the file.

@Wayne-Workman What’s a good way to share files between an ubuntu server vm and windows 7? I’ve tried auto fs, and installing VMWare tools, but I’m getting no luck. And I can’t get to the file.

@Wayne-Workman That worked! I tried your method of copying the file worked I believe, now I’m stuck with the PXE-E51 message when I try to boot into PXE on a machine, any advice on troubleshooting?

I see you’re a regular here Mr. Workman. I tried looking at this:
https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/4867/issues-booting-to-fog-using-dnsmasq
I ran the ls command for the tftpboot folder. Below is what it spat out if that helps at all.

@Tom-Elliott I still get the same issue unfortunately.
