Hi and please help ;-) I have edubuntu server 64 set up on my box at home with two nics. What I wanted to do was set up my two kids with a client in the bedrooms so that I can monitor internet usage. But i keep running into a problem. I cannot get my clients to boot. After I set up the server I plugged my laptop in to try and boot over the network. It works flawlessly. It works very fast and has no issues. So then I tried to set up my first client. It's a dell Optiplex GX200 900Mhz with 256 meg of ram. This box should work, but I keep getting No DHCP server found.
I have also tried an older HP Pavilion 8575C with a linksys nic card. so I burned a network boot rom based on the chipset (it is a Centaur-p) I also get no dhcp servers. the actual error message is: centaur-p :00:04:5a:82:91:6a at ioaddr 1400 searching for server (DHCP) ....No IP address .No ip address .No ip address .No ip address .No ip address .No ip address Then I'll plug my laptop back in and I can boot over the network no problem...right into my Edubuntu Desktop. I'm totalily lost. I do not know what to do to trouble shoot the issue any further. Does anybody else have any suggestions? Thanks in advance -ryan
