I copied ca.ipxe.org to internal webserver to see if that would resolve my 
problem, however, I still get an error:

Could not boot: Error 0x00000001 (http://ipxe.org/00000001)

I’m pointing to local copy in the ipxe file I’m loading:

!ipxe

set crosscert http://webserver/ca.ipxe.org/
sync ; exit 1
:crosscert_ok

#sleep 10
ifstat net0
imgfetch -n kernel https://webserver/pxelinux.cfg/01-${net0/mac:hexhyp} && goto 
image_ok || goto discovery_image
sleep 10

Thanks, I will use config/local/general.h going forward.  As for downloading 
certchain from ca.ipxe.org, I do not have access to the internet..  Is there 
anyway to disable that feature? Was hoping “set crosscert x-invalid://” would 
do it?  Trying to leverage https but with –insecure (like with curl/wget).

Then i must suggest to read that ipxe.org<http://ipxe.org> url, and also 
include it so that it easier for others to help you.

By default ipxe https implementation downloads the certchain from 
ca.ipxe.org<http://ca.ipxe.org> (if i'm not missremembering)
so to double check this i would strongly suggest that you test with internet 
access available first so you know that testcase works and then go on to the 
next step to make it internal only.

again, please use config/local/general.h, and don't redefine something that is 
already defined by default (This will make it easier for you when there is any 
updates, and will minimize the risk for any future builds of ipxe to fail.)

Not sure where I found the above example to disable crosscert check, but I gave 
it a try anyway.

#define DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS    /* Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol */

Do you get a error and a ipxe.org<http://ipxe.org> error URL or does it just 
hang?
Does the network have access to the internet (for possible download of the 
certificate chain)

the proper way to enable functions is to add the just needed ones to the proper 
config/local file, in this case adding
#define  DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS    /* Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol */
into src/config/local/general.h

note the #define instead of $define (which should cause compilation error i 
hope)

Hi,

I’m trying to access a pxelinux.cfg file over HTTPS instead of HTTP:

#!ipxe
# Disable automated download of certificates since it is done against
# unauthenticated host which may lead to exploits

ifstat net0
imgfetch -n kernel 
https://WEBSERVER/pxelinux.cfg/01-${net0/mac:hexhyp}<https://WEBSERVER/pxelinux.cfg/01-$%7Bnet0/mac:hexhyp%7D>
 && goto image_ok || goto discovery_image

:discovery_image
ifstat net0
imgfetch -n kernel https://WEBSERVER/pxelinux.cfg/default || echo 
${net0/mac}:${ip} - Boot Failed

:image_ok
imgload kernel
boot kernel

I’ve tried compiling ipxe-fd95c78 and updated config/general.h to include 
$define DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS but it still fails to access the URL, if I change 
it back to http://WEBSERVER, it works.

Any advice?

Thank you.

Andrew
