ipxe and DNSMASQ
I have a FOG server setup and working correctly. Because I am using it at home, my FIOS router also provides a DHCP server so I want to use DNSMASQ as a DHCP proxy server to handle requests and respond with a TFTP address. So far, this is all working correctly. When I PXE boot, it correctly gets a DHCP address from the FIOS router and DNSMASQ correctly provides the TFTP ip address. IPXE correctly loads but always prompts for a TFTP ip address. I know this usually occurs when there are multiple DHCP servers in the network but I have verified the only DHCP server is the one provided by the FIOS router. DHCPD is stopped on the FOG server. To test this, I disabled the DHCP server on the FIOS router, and the PXE boot just hangs as it never receives an IP address.
I also created a menu entry in the FOG server that executes the "config" command so I could look at the IPXE settings, and I verified that the NEXT-SERVER/Option 66 was correctly set to the ip address of the TFTP server. If I manually enter the TFTP address, which the same as the FOG server, it PXE boots correctly to the menus entries I have configured on the FOG server. What I can't figure out is why does IPXE always prompt for a TFTP address when it looks like everything is configured correctly and I have verified there is only the FIOS DHCP router providing DHCP. I'm so close to getting this to work! Help! Below is my /etc/dnsmasq.d/ltsp.conf file. Code: port=0 |
