@Tom-Elliott So I literally just
ifconfig eth0:0 123.123.22.22
then when I am done
# ifconfig eth0:0 down
And my original connection stays as is?

@Tom-Elliott gotcha. Ill try it with my remedial linux skills. LOL.
I know this Tom. You and I worked for a good two hours to get it to work one Sunday.
Working with someone from here, we got my Fog server working by hard coding the enet adapter in the server, but now when I plug it into an external network connection to try and update it, I get no internet connection.
One thought I have is to disable the network connection that is hard coded and create a new connection, but I don’t want to lose that one. In Ubuntu, is it possible to create a new connection using the same adapter, then switch back to the old connection?
Thoughts? Suggestions?
@Tom-Elliott you’re a gentleman and a scholar. I won’t believe the things they say about you again. Lol.
@Tom-Elliott is there a simple command to completely replace the dhcpd.conf file? I’ve created a secondary file with the changes you made.
(sorry, really an Ubuntu NEWB here, but I am loving this and learning SO MUCH. Thank you.)
@Tom-Elliott HA we posted the SAME thing at the same time. How can I correct that?
@george1421 ok I know its sunday, so I am sorry for the barrage of responses.
I think I found something. the Fog server IP/Address is “localhost” or 10.1.1.10 but the DHCP server seems to be assigning the client 10.1.10.X IP addresses. So the subnet is not the same. I am guessing this is an issue. BUT, I don’t know how to change that.
@george1421 OK, got my DHCP working. Also have my TFTP active and good, however, on PXE boot, I get the PXE-E11 error still in spite of having green lights on the TFTPD and DHCP statuses. DHCP assigns the client the IP and it moves on to TFTPD and then ffailes with the ARP timeout/
@george1421 here is the text of my dhcp.conf file. Anything glaring out at you?

@george1421 thanks for the prompt response george.
As I am a NEWB I don’t know how to use putty. Wish that made things easier, but I don’t.
Based on the way I had configure the install, I unplugged the network connection, and it immediately completed. However, now, I get the PX-e11 ARP Failed error… why can’t this just work.
I go to verify my DHCP and this is what I get (sorry about the screenshot)
Finally got my installer to work, thanks to @Wayne-Workman and @george1421 But after the DB was configured and I am finally able to get to the management portal, we are stuck HERE. ARGH. 0_1491752137173_error1
Do I wait it out? Is there a quick fix?
Thanks in advance
@Wayne-Workman the WE I meant was us here. I am nothing but appreciative of the help you offered. We have a linux pro here, and even he couldnt figure it out. I wasn’t being impatient with you.
@Wayne-Workman we wasted too long working on this. I wiped the machine and am working on a fresh install, but now for some reason I am getting the Stopping Web Services …Failed and then it gets stuck at Adding needed repository, during install. I WANT THIS TO WORK! lmao.
POST reinstall, I restarted the DHCP server and checked the status again, and got this notification.
I’ve decided to try a reinstall of the FOG server. I received a 404 error when i attempted WGET, but I was able to download the ZIP file from GitHUb.
Currently installing. Will update.
When I check the DHCP server status this is what I get.
