Hi ALL
Has anyone any insight as to why RedHat Enterprise Level 5 is broken as far as PXE booting is concerned. Is there a Protocol communication problem ???????? It seems: the PXE CLIENT when booting cannot access files in the "pxelinux.cfg" dir RHEL4 works just fine !! But RHEL5 seems to be broken..... is the TFTP SERVER broken (tftp-server-0.42-3.1.i386.rpm) Client very SLOWLY displays thus: Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1000FD Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1000F Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1000 Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC100 Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC10 Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC1 Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/AC Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/A Trying to load: pxelinux.cfg/default Message log : #################################################################### dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 172.16.0.253 (172.16.0.254) from 00:01:6c:ca:24:7b via eth1 dhcpd: DHCPACK on 172.16.0.253 to 00:01:6c:ca:24:7b via eth1 xinetd[3173]: START: tftp pid=3238 from=172.16.0.253 in.tftpd[3239]: RRQ from 172.16.0.253 filename pxelinux.0 in.tftpd[3239]: tftp: client does not accept options in.tftpd[3240]: RRQ from 172.16.0.253 filename pxelinux.0 *** AND STOPS here ** #################################################################### the "tftp: client does not accept options" doesn't seem to be a problem as it is generated on RHEL4 servers & the pxe booting still WORKS.
