Ah I see -

It displays the local machines IP / MAC but not the IP of the TFTP server.

Hi guys,

Anyone able to help with this?

Thanks,

Hi Tom,

The server IP is static. (Obviously!)

The client PC I’m using as a test for the PXE boot is receiving an IP via DHCP and yes it is within the scope and able to communicate with the FOG server.

Hi Tom,

Sorry - forgot to include that.

Yes I have disabled the firewall.

Thanks,

Hi all,

I’ve just recently come across Fog and thought I’d play about as we need a decent imaging solution!

I’ve got it setup on a virtual machine and for the most part it appears to be working okay.

web interface is working fine.

I’m able to run tftp get <ip> undionly.kpxe successfully.

I’ve added the following entries on the DHCP server: 66: <ip> 67: undionly.kpxe

Server is running on latest Ubuntu. Fog is latest installation.

The problem I’m encountering is when I try booting from PXE on a client machine (Dell OptiPlex 7010 / several other models of Dell) it is getting as far as “tftp …” then times out eventually as if it isn’t seeing the TFTP server.

Any assistance would be amazing.

I’m not very familiar with Linux at all so beginner talk please!

Thanks,

Paul
