[-- Attachment #1 --] i've been using isc dhcpd for almost a year now with great results. there is one pesky problem that i simply have not been able to solve. netboot doesn't boot. it returns "can't find server" or some such message to the console during boot. this is with isc dhcpd running. the only other bootp client on my net is a mac - it works fine. my diskless client will boot just fine if i turn on bootpd. it just doesn't work with isc dhcpd. i have not tried an alternative dhcp server (not that desperate just yet.) i have verified this behavior with dhcpd-1.0.0 and dhcpd-1.0pl2. any suggestions? on a slightly different topic - is anyone working on supporting 100mb ethernet cards in netboot? thanks, -scotto [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META content=text/html;charset=iso-8859-1 http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content='"MSHTML 4.72.3110.7"' name=GENERATOR> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>i've been using isc dhcpd for almost a year now with great results. there is one pesky problem that i simply have not been able to solve.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>netboot doesn't boot. it returns "can't find server" or some such message to the console during boot. this is with isc dhcpd running. the only other bootp client on my net is a mac - it works fine.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2>my diskless client will boot just fine if i turn on bootpd. it just doesn't work with isc dhcpd. i have not tried an alternative dhcp server (not that desperate just yet.) i have verified this behavior with dhcpd-1.0.0 and dhcpd-1.0pl2.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>any suggestions?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>on a slightly different topic - is anyone working on supporting 100mb ethernet cards in netboot?</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>thanks,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>-scotto</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>help
