@Wayne-Workman so I still get the error even though it’s listed in netstat.
Also, to answer your original question, it’s because our DHCP here in my environment is handled through the switches instead of a DHCP server. And I don’t have any Cisco training to make changes lol.

@Wayne-Workman Thanks for the reply, I added the symbolic link.
But for port 53, I still get the same issue after a restart. What exavtly would I be looking for with the top command?
It’s just a bunch of text that I’m not too familiar with aha.

Hello,
I’m created a virtual mahine with Ubunutu Server (12.04.5) I’ve got the FOG software installed, now I’m trying to setup dnsmasq.
I’ve set the ltsp.conf file with the following, let’s say the ip for the server is 10.10.8.55

port=0
tftp-boot=\tftpboot
dhcp-option=undionly.kpxe,10.10.8.155,10.10.8.155
dhcp-option=17,/images
dhcp-option=vendor:PXEClient,6,2b
dhcp-o-override
pxe-prompt="Press F8 for boot menu", 3
pxe-service=X86PC, "Boot from network", undionly.kpxe
pxe-service=X86, "Boot fom local hard disk", 0
dhcp-range=10.10.8.155,proxy

I try to run “sudo service dnsmasq restart,” and it spits out: * Restarting DNS forwarder and DHCP server configuration syntax check [fail]
I also try to run “sudo dnsmasq -d,” but I get another error saying port 53 is already in use.
Is there something I’m missing?

Mod edited to use code box.

Thanks Tom.

I disabled the firewall on my FOG server, I’ve made some progess as far as another error code, I get PXE E51 now instead of E55.
I’ll do some digging.

Hello,

I’m trying to get my FOG server up and running, I was able to get FOG installed, configured, but I’m getting no reply when I try to PXEBoot from my laptop (PXE: E55).
In the environment I’m working in, we have Cisco switches manage the DHCP side of networking, we don’t have permissions to setup DHCP through Windows Server.
I’ve set the proper DHCP settings to point to the FOG server, I followed these instructions:(https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Other_DHCP_Configurations)

I also tried using dnsmasq as a proxy to point to the FOG server:
(https://wiki.fogproject.org//wiki/index.php?title=Using_FOG_with_an_unmodifiable_DHCP_server/_Using_FOG_with_no_DHCP_server)

I have a very basic understanding of how exactly all the network settings fall together, am I missing something? I’ve tried multiple different settings on the proxyDHCP as well as reinstalling FOG and starting from the beginning, but I still can’t get it to work properly.
