Hello everybody, I'm currently using virtualbox to simulate a network where a virtual appliance delivers PXE images to other (diskless) virtual machine instances.
I noticed that the client VMs failed to boot because they accepted the addresses from the VirtualBox dhcp server, which is *not* configured to provide any image. I also tested disabling the built-in dhcp server and putting another dhcp server as a VM, and once again, the clients that were supposed to use the PXE server failed. When there is no dhcp other than my PXE delivering VM, everything works fine. This happened on a host-only network, using VirtualBox 4.1.14. I wonder if that kind of behaviour is normal?
