Hi Artyom,
Zitat von Artyom Viklenko <artem@aws-net.org.ua>:
> Do you use dhcp server in VMWare? You can disable it.
thanks for the hint.
I have checked the VMWare settings and saw that the virtual adapter I use is not
part of the VMWare-DHCP configuration (I use the bridged adapter which is
excluded from using the WMWare´s own DHCP service).
I´m pretty sure this is no vmware issue as I can see the request from the client
on the FreeBSD DHCP/TFTP/NFS server. The PXE part makes a second DHCP request
and does not get the expected answer and defaults to some strange value where
to find the kernel ("/pxeroot").
The main question is, why does it not accept what I´ve entered in the dhcpd.conf
("option root-path "192.168.2.38:/usr/local/export/pxe") and takes "/pexroot"
instead?
Cheers,
Emre
