      @MarcB can only quote from memory since I don’t have the setup at work.

      But my fog server is 1.3.0RC16 running on a Raspberry Pi running raspbian [https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8642/installing-a-bit-of-fog-pi-the-hackish-way]. Yes it is running dnsmasq but I compiled 2.76 to have uefi support [https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8725/compiling-dnsmasq-2-76-if-you-need-uefi-support].

      My ltsp.conf configuration is a bit more complex when you add in the uefi support, but the initial script is also listed in the tutorial https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8726/advanced-dnsmasq-techniques

      As for Virtualbox I installed 5.1.10 for Ubuntu 15.10 (“Wily”) x64 and the VirtualBox 5.1.10 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack. Then I changed the network adapter to bridged that was connected to my laptop’s wireless adapter and set the virtualbox network adapter to the intel (desktop) adapter. Then for the boot order I set the network adapter first in the list.

      Your dnsmasq log file “looks” good. It says its sending bootfile and next server. But that isn’t what your pcap was showing.

      @MarcB said in Client boots from FOG server in one network, but registers with FOG server in different network:

      I just reread the README and see that every file in that directory will be read by dnsmasq unless it has “.dpkg-dist”,“.dpkg-old” or “.dpkg-new” appended to the end.

      Lol… that would explain what I found long ago, and ranted about in this thread:
      https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/8127/has-something-changed-with-uefi/24

      @Wayne-Workman said in Has something changed with UEFI?:

      Also, I want to point out some stuff with dnsmasq that has tripped me up before.

      Firstly, it uses WHAT-EVER it finds inside /etc/dnsmasq.d

      Doesn’t matter what it’s named. ltsp.conf, ltsp.conf.old, MyXmasWishList.txt - it does not care. If you have backup configurations in there, move them somewhere else.

      Maybe that issue is resolved in the newer version, I don’t know.

      Second - when dnsmasq sends out it’s ProxyDHCP - it appends .0 to the filename it gives. You could do some complex stuff with symbolic links, but I prefer not to. I prefer to copy the file I want to use. In your case, let’s go with ipxe.efi. You’d copy that like so: cp /tftpboot/ipxe.efi /tftpboot/ipxe.efi.0

      @MarcB It’d help a lot if you posted the entire ltsp.conf file.
