(I've done a search of the list archives and googled around a bit first... haven't found anything, so I'm gonna ask here.)
Good news... We have PXE/Unattended/AD/Windows installs working great! Bad news... UA server has a dying disk. Good news... I build a new server, and have DHCP PXE response changed. Bad news... Clients still insist on tftp-ing to the old server. So I set up another machine indentical to the first. Before shutting down the old server, I want to test the new server. So I call networking and have them change the PXE section of the DHCP response for a test subnet to the new server (which happens to have a 10 net address). When I try to install a machine in this test subnet, it happily pulls the pxelinux.0 image from the old UA server, not the new UA server. I've verified that the DHCP server is telling clients in the test subnet to use the new UA server, by using tcpdump. If I shut off tftpd on the old UA server, clients hang after pulling an address. I've manually tftped pxelinux.0 from the new UA server, so at least that part is working. Is there some sort of fall-back-on-broadcasting thing going on here? Anyone have some ideas? We had a similar problem when we switched over from RIS, but solved it by shutting down the RIS server.
