    • RE: Ubuntu 11.10 no longer supported

      edit (nano or vi) " /etc/default/tftpd-hpa " and add “sleep 30” on the top line so it looks like :

      [I][B]sleep 30[/B][/I]
      [I][B]# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa[/B][/I]
      [I][B]# FOG Modified version[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_USERNAME=“root”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/tftpboot”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_ADDRESS=“0.0.0.0:69”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_OPTIONS=“-s”[/B][/I]

      will have to restart the service or reboot

    • RE: Problems booting to HDD after PXE on Dell Latitiude E6420

      check the sata mode in the bios - try using ata /ahci - swapping them around maybe the machine that was imaged from had a different setting to what you are imaging too in conjuntion with the chainloading link as above.

    • RE: I don't appear to be the group manager error

      if it’s on a separate box - make sure mysqld listens on a physical interface rather than 127.0.0.1

      so if that subnet isn’t getting dhcp - is there a scope set on the windows box for that subnet with a pool set - is the pool exhausted ? check to see if the pool isn’t exhausted …

      so it is proceesing the requests ok - try adding a simple task like mem test or inventory - should all work ok but to get it to boot local have a look at this [url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Boot_looping_and_Chainloading[/url] - can you post the default file /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default

    • RE: TFTP Open Timeout

      just check to see if the process is running again on the linux box “ps -A |grep tftp” if still not running check the logs /var/log on ubuntu

      :$ ps -A |grep tftp
      1184 ? 00:00:00 in.tftpd

    • RE: STATIC IP PLEASE HELP

      easy way of finding default gateway and subnet mask is to set the workstation to dhcp - wait until it gets and ip address - fo to the information - note down the dg and subnet - pop out to a terminal try pinging and address up the top or down the bottom of the ip range (to find out a address that hasn’t been allocated out) find a non responding address and use that along with the dg and subnet mask details… most if not all subnet masks will be 255.255.255.0 …

      pxe from different subnet is ok - one way to quickly confirm is do a ps -A |grep tftp to see if its running if it is running but no process id then certainly try the sleep - let me know in the morning… will be evening for me

    • RE: FOG and More than 10 Unicast Clients

      under storage management - all stroage nodes - default member(or whatever node it’s going from) there’s a field for max clients - the deafult value is 10. As a rule of thumb though I usually stick to multicasting to all hosts on the same physical switch as there can be some timing issues using xover-uplinks from switch to switch , though have tested on multiple switches that have had trunked vlans and all work fine at full speed 4.5GB/min. let me know how you get on.

    • RE: TFTP Open Timeout

      sounds like a problem I’ve encountered before (when I upgraded my Ububntu to 13.04) appears to be the the tftp service starts when the network isn’t up and can’t bind to any interfaces( anybody let me know if I’m wrong) by changing the start up script you can delay the service initializing until the network is up.

      edit (nano or vi) " /etc/default/tftpd-hpa " and add “sleep 30” on the top line so it looks like :

      [I][B]sleep 30[/B][/I]
      [I][B]# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa[/B][/I]
      [I][B]# FOG Modified version[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_USERNAME=“root”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/tftpboot”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_ADDRESS=“0.0.0.0:69”[/B][/I]
      [I][B]TFTP_OPTIONS=“-s”[/B][/I]

      will have to restart the service or reboot

      let me know how you get on - should work though

      also confirm that option 66 & 67 on your dhcp scope/server option points to your sog server (option 66) and “pxelinux.0” ( zero, for option 67)
