Hi Nick,
please try to ping it by it's Name "ntinstall".
I went into the problem, that a manual DNS-Entry as an option in my DD-WRT
doesn't effect all Linux PCs, it just works for Windows-boxes.
Currently I don't know why. I'm currently overriding it with the IP of the
server.
Can you try to copy the whole Error? I'm not sure about what TFTP has to do
with mounting the install-dir.
Regards
- Christof

Betreff: [Unattended] How to submit a support request for Unattended?
Hi
How do I submit a support request?
I can't find a forum to join but it seems I mail this list - and somehow
that leads to a post?
Anyway, I have a Dell server I want to install SBS on.
I have put all the disks under "os" and have set up TFTP.
I have aliased ntinstall server name and can access the share on my Windows
network from another machine (I had to add an OptionNames registry entry,
not mentioned in the documentation).
I can boot to Linux pxe, and start the script and it gets to mounting the
share as z: but fails with a cifs.mount failed error.
TFTP says cannot find file.
I'm not sure why this fails and I have no Linux knowledge anyway, but I
couldn't manually connect if I did - I think? I couldn't pick up the script
from where itr failed.
What is the cause of this and how do I fix it?
I have the CNAME alias and can access \\ntinstall\install
<file:///\\ntinstall\install> from Windows - is it failing to find that in
the script, or to mount it? Or is it something else?
Thanks for any help.
Nick
