I guess I could do that, but I don't want to mess around with something
that's currently working
fine now.
I'll give you alittle more detail on the setup.
My firewall is setup to have an IP of 192.168.1.1 and the LTSP machine has a
IP of 192.168.1.65
This is what my current dhcpd.conf file looks like on the firewall:
#------------------------------------------------------------
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
deny bootp;
option domain-name "digl.dnsalias.com";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
default-lease-time 86400;
max-lease-time 604800;
option netbios-dd-server 192.168.1.1;
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
option netbios-node-type 8;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
range 192.168.1.65 192.168.1.250;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
}
Now doing some looking around I found on http://k12ltsp.org/faq.html the
following question:
Q: I want to install K12LTSP but I only want to use one ethernet card and
use another DHCP server. Can I do that?
Yes, You'll have to edit the list of files on the install page and add
entries for your clients in the dhcpd.conf file of your DHCP server. Here's
an example from our server:
host icue5 {
hardware ethernet 00:d0:09:27:67:55;
fixed-address 10.171.13.5;
allow bootp;
server-name "beast.riverdale.k12.or.us";
next-server 10.171.0.11;
filename "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp";
}
In this example we're using IP numbers in the 10.x.x.x range. Our LTSP
server is called "beast" and its address is 10.171.0.11. To get your host
MAC address (hardware ethernet line...) just run tail -f /var/log/messages
on your DHCP server and watch the DHCP request come in from the client.
%$%%%$%$%$%$%
Now would my DHCPD.CONF on the firewall shouldbe looking like the following
?
#------------------------------------------------------------
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
deny bootp;
option domain-name "digl.dnsalias.com";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
default-lease-time 86400;
max-lease-time 604800;
option netbios-dd-server 192.168.1.1;
option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.1;
option netbios-node-type 8;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
range 192.168.1.65 192.168.1.250;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
}
host icue5 {
hardware ethernet 00:d0:09:27:67:55; <---- Who's MAC address is
this? LTSP server or workstation??
fixed-address 10.171.13.5; <---- Who's IP address is this? LTSP
server or workstation??
allow bootp;
server-name "pc65.digl.dnsalias.com"; <<------ LTSP MAchine?
next-server 192.168.1.65; <<------
LTSP MAchine?
filename "/tftpboot/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp";
}
Or am I totally off here??
