What if I'm running a mix of PXE, Etherboot, and regular dhcp clients - is there a class identifier for Etherboot, so that I can have my remaining clients fall into somewhere that I don't push an image on them? Or is that something that would merely be ignored by Windows and OSX clients? Thanks,

Hi,

I want to boot both by etherboot and by PXE and I don't want to put a
long list of MAC addresses for DHCP to choose from. There used to be a
small section one could add to dhcpd.conf to allow the alternative boot
process without having to specify MACs but I cannot find it.


I nicked this part:

shared-network WORKSTATIONS {
  subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
     range dynamic-bootp 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.253;
     use-host-decl-names       on;
     option log-servers        192.168.0.254;

# trick from Peter Rundle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient"
{
filename "/lts/pxe/pxelinux.bin";
# NOTE: kernels are specified in /tftpboot/lts/pxe/pxelinux.cfg/
}
else
{
filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.9-ltsp";
}
}
}


from http://k12ltsp.org/server.html, (adapt to fit your situation), works well.
