@george1421 hi,

right what i have done thus far. I worked through your tutorial. I uncommented "enable-tftp"and switched off the TFTPD-hpa service. I got 2 errors. PXE-E32 and PXE-M0F. I then commented out the enable-tftp and switched the service tftpd-hpa on and i only got the second error-PXE-M0F

are there any tools i can use to see what the tftpd service is doing? I have googled it and it said something about a grep command? Is there any software i can install on my ubuntu?

Any ideas…im nearly there with getting FOG working and i really dont want to abandon it at this late stage.

@Tom-Elliott do appreciate all your help. My PXE boot client keeps bombing out at the TFTP bit. I have attached a pic…is there any tools to see what TFTP is not doing…??very frustrating…!
Also its not on the screen, but when i press F11 then F8 the screen displays BD, then it bombs out.

sorry that was my error. It is /tftproot. i have attached a few screen grabs of the different locations of the file structure. Also as i am using DNSMASQ i have attached the config file.

yes. Initially i didnt have a folder at the root called /tftproot. So i manually copied it over. I also isntalled DNSMASQ. I know my PXE client is reading the config file because i made a change to the timeout for pressing F8 from 3 secs to 15. My pixxy client, then, im assuming tries to read the boot file and fails with an exit code. So i changed the config file to read the UNDIONLY.PXE, But it fails and im not sure why. The error is PXE-M0F

Can someone tell me if these settings are correct in my FOG install.

@Wayne-Workman

Also the switch is doing is leasing IP address and have just got it to work with the two options. Question on Option 67, the wiki says to use file name UNDIONLY.kpxe. Is this correct?

Description Can I use ProxyDHCP with my above setup? According to the docuementation i dont think i can…but any help/advice will be most appreciated. Currently our DHCP services are being run on a switch…

@Tom-Elliott sorry tom. I meant the TFTP service. I installed 1.3 RC release and it installed it the the DIR i have already mentioned. On the FOG server the TFTP PXE KERNEL DIR is set to /var/www/fog/sservice/ipxe?

Should i make a copy of the folder to the root?

OK. The Dir is actually /var/lib/tftboot. Which was i assume installed when fog was installed.

I have changed to reflect that now. however, Im still no closer to get the TFTP side to work.

added the line. now the ftp service wont load. Its saying that /tftpboot is missing.

Running 1.3.0 on Ubuntu. Everything running fine. Console is running no issues. I boot laptopo to NIC. It gets an IP address but when the TFTP runs it times out. The settings in the tftpd-hpa is as follows:

/etc/default/tftpd-hpa

#TFTP_USERNAME=“tftp”
TFTP_USERNAME=“fog”
#TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/var/lib/tftpboot”
TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/etc/default”
#TFTP_DIRECTORY=“/var/www/fog/service/ipxe”
TFTP_ADDRESS=“0.0.0.0.”
TFTP_OPTIONS=“–secure”

The ip address is correct. On the fog server the path for the image file is set to /var/www/fog/service/ipxe which i added to the file since it wasnt working. I can manually GET files on windows and it sends. So the TFTP server is working.

The question is why is it failing to boot into fog client?

@george1421 Thank you. I will re-attempt this monday now. Have a good weekend.

@george1421 sorry george, not a linux guy. Do i need to be in SQL or something?

Its ran the first command…so unsure when to run that command.

ALTER USER ‘root’@‘localhost’ IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY ‘’;

That command in the WIKI isnt being recognised on my ubuntu? ALTER…? Do i need to be in a particular DIR?

i get when running that command Module php7.0 does not exist.

I re-ran the command apt-get install php7.0. It reported there was nothing to upgrade/install or remove.

hi i have managed to get Fog running after a very steep learning curve!! LOL. Dont even know linux so im quite chuffed. Fog installed all OK, but the management console isnt displaying correctly. It seems like its displaying code lines…?? and not the management screen.

Since i had installed the latest versions of ubuntu I installed PHP7.0 manually and edited the config.sh file and replaced the "php"with “php 7.0”

Any ideas? Many thanks. Mohammed
