Howdy folks, Our iPXE deployment is going really well - every machine at this university now boots to iPXE unless specifically overridden by local administrators, so I'd call that a pretty big success.
What I'm wondering is whether there's any support in iPXE at present (or planned) for HTTPS. I would like to use that in order to securely communicate with a web server which would be dynamically generating iPXE scripts which the client machines could then chainload, in order to provide services like the registration of a machine's hostname in our DNS and Active Directory, for example. In order to make such services, authentication credentials would be needed, and I don't want to pass that sort of thing over the wire in cleartext. I've already had good luck with services that don't require authentication being scripted in this manner - all that's needed is echo, read, and chain. Thanks again for all your hard work!
