Hey symbhu,
After the clients first boot. You have to check PXE Clients Tab in the
manager console and accept the client. If there is no entry from the client
check wether the dhcp realy just handle the ip addresses and give really no
other boot information (like pxe server or something). After that check that
there is no firewall active on the otc server (check also that the windows
firewall is shut down (if os is windows))
Regards

Betreff: [openthinclient-user] DHCP problem?
Hello all,
I am new to this mailing list.
We have few old thin clinets (IBM Netvista) and I was configuring
openthinclient for those.
Information:
------------------
1) I followed the documents from http://openthinclient.org/admin%27s%20guide
2) I have one DHCP server (only assign IP)
3) openthinclient software on another server. (no firewall)
4) There is an alternative configuration available in Thin client BIOS, to
specify Boot file source and its profile location (presently not using it,
as i was not sure which path to specify)
Problem:
-------------
1) After receiving IP form DHCP, thinclients are not able to get PXE
information.
2) openthinclient server does not get any PXE request from thin client.
3) No log information about the error in openthinclient server.
Error Message:
---------------------
Boot file server protocol not specified (displayed in verbose screen of thin
client)
Is any information about TFTP server need to be specified in DHCP server.
Regards,
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
