| 00:49.51 | ssrat | Since I tried the Intel PXE server (part of a past CentOS), that means that I stopped running atftpd |
| 00:50.15 | ssrat | Since I did that, the client (with this setup) now goes to the PXE server right away (just like before) |
| 00:50.40 | ssrat | But now, after making a choice, it goes to TFTP right away, *then* tries MTFTP |
| 00:51.13 | ssrat | MFTP replies (apparently ok) but there's no file there... or is there? |
| 00:51.27 | ssrat | I think it's there but I have to check. |
| 00:51.37 | ssrat | I'll look at syslog to see what the messages are. |
| 01:02.29 | ssrat | It's been more than "several" hours now.... pretty dead in here.... |
| 02:13.44 | ssrat | Dead, dead, dead..... |
| 02:14.04 | ssrat | I've been reading the PXE specs, but I don't see anything that stands out. |
| 02:14.30 | ssrat | There's a lot of docs on how to use PXE, and how to set up TFTP, PXE, and DHCP.... but nothing that zeros in on MTFTP |
| 02:14.55 | ssrat | I'll have to come back - I've waited as long as I can. |

| 08:26.00 | ahfeel | hi |
| 08:28.35 | ssrat | hi! |
| 08:29.11 | ssrat | ahfeel..... |
| 08:31.44 | ahfeel | yep ? |
| 08:32.36 | ssrat | I've a problem with my PXE configuration.... |
| 08:32.50 | ssrat | I'm trying to use MTFTP without much success |
| 08:33.56 | ssrat | I'm using ISC DHCP v3, PXE server from kano.org.uk, and atftpd |
| 08:39.09 | ssrat | The leases from DHCP seem to be okay, then the PXE server acts as a DHCP server (Proxy DHCP?) |
| 08:40.23 | ssrat | Then the PXE client sends out a request for something to a multicast address (I think it is the PXE server multicast addr) |
| 08:40.43 | ssrat | In any case, it gets a unicast response - then starts downloading via TFTP. |
| 08:40.53 | ssrat | Yet, I want it to use MTFTP. |
| 08:41.18 | ssrat | The barrage of "multicast" addresses is confusing - and there even seems to be one address per NBP |
| 08:41.25 | ssrat | Plus one for the MTFTP server |
| 08:41.37 | ssrat | Plus one for the PXE server (?) |
| 08:45.12 | ssrat | I tried using the Intel PXE and MTFTP; it seemed to almost work, but would try TFTP and fall back to MTFTP |
| 08:45.21 | ssrat | At least once, it stopped falling back to MTFTP... |
| 08:53.35 | ahfeel | mmm |
| 08:54.15 | ahfeel | i don't know sorry... my PXE works with tftp and ISC DHCP |
| 08:54.33 | ssrat | I got the PXE servers to work easily |
| 08:54.48 | ssrat | It's just MTFTP and Multicasting that's proving to be a difficulty |
| 08:55.12 | ahfeel | i really can't help you :\Â sorry |
| 08:55.19 | ssrat | Do you have a recommendation of Intel PXE versus kano.org.uk PXE server? |
| 08:55.28 | ahfeel | nop :\ |
| 08:55.49 | ssrat | Oh well. |
| 08:56.12 | ssrat | I checked the archives (somewhat) of the logs and couldn't find anything there either |
| 08:56.20 | ssrat | Of the ##pxe logs |
| 08:57.02 | ssrat | I'll just keep trying. Thanks anyway.... |
