My understanding is basic here, but do the two servers (FOG and C) have the
same IP?

Scott,
Here goes. My dns and dhcp server we will call "A". My fog Server we will call
"B". and the other one we will call "C". When "C" is turned on, my clients
cannot pxe boot to the fog screen. When I turn "C" off. clients will then pxe
boot to the fog menu and image. Looking at the dhcp the clients pull, they are
pulling the correct ip, subnet, gateway, etc. I ran a search on my network, and
I have only one dhcp running. That is on server "A". This one has me baffled.
Is there a setting in server 2000 to tell the dhcp server where the tftp server
is located?

Corey,
It does sound like two maybe 3 dhcp's. You said you do not have the DHCP
running on the FOG server, yet if you shut off C you can PXE boot. So,...if
they are both shut off, how does it manage to PXE boot?
I'm also not clear on what happens if C is shutoff, can you actually PXE boot
and get an image transferred or see the FOg menu and register?

I don't know much about FOG, but that sounds like a case of dual DHCP
servers to me. With the Win server off, can you verify which DHCP
server the client is connecting too? Usually, if you watch the PXE boot
process closely it will tell you the IP of the server it's talking to.
Or, turn the server off, and take any other workstation and
release/renew the ip address and see if it still gets an address.
With the Windows server off, you would expect the "ipconfig /renew"
command to fail.

Yes Michael you are correct. I have already done these steps. If I
take "Server C" down, my clients will pxe connect. If I bring it
back
up, they will not.

I assume you are running DHCP on one of your windows domain controllers.
Did you tell the fog server to also be a DHCP server?
Did you set options 066 and 067 on your Windows Server:
1. Open DHCP configuration *Start* > *Administrative Tools* > *DHCP*.
2. Then expand your server, expand the applicable scope (often only
one is there)
3. right click on *Scope Options*
4. click *Configure Options*
5. tick *066* and enter the IP Address of the FOG server
6. tick *067* and enter *pxelinux.0* (thats a zero).
7. Make sure that 060 is unticked.

Ok. I need a little help. I setup a new fog server and it is
running well. The problem is that when I have a different server
( we will call it C) on, my clients will time out trying to find
the tftp server. I reboot "Server C" and no problems. I have a
domain controller running windows 2k. Where does it tell the
clients to look for the tftp? I need to do some imaging, and
really don't want to have to shut down a server to do it.
Thanks,
Corey Plotner
