Have a look at dhclient-perl. There you see that the DHCP vendor
option 170 are mapped to FAI_CONFIG_SRC.

 option_170              FAI_CONFIG_SRC

So you should use this in dhcpd.conf
 option option-170 "nfs://faiserver/usr/local/share/fai";  # FAI_CONFIG_SRC
But I never tested this.

Well, it works fine, almost out of the box. As dhclient-perl also defines an "fai_config_src" variable, I have declared it both in dhcpd.conf and dhclient-fai.conf, and FAI_CONFIG_SRC is now set to the appropriate value after a PXE boot.

In dhcpd.conf, in general options:
option fai_config_src code 170 = text;
and then for each subnet:
option fai_config_src "nfs://subnet-faiserver/usr/local/share/fai/config"; # FAI_CONFIG_SRC

In dhclient-fai.conf:
option fai_config_src code 170 = text;
and add fai_config_src to the request list

And in dhclient-perl, also added fai_config_src to @list.



BTW. Maybe you like to update your FAI questionnaire from 2004 and
sent it back to me.

Surprisingly enough, my 2 year-old questionnaire is out-of-date :-) ; I will do so pretty soon.

Thanks for your help,
