In case it's an issue with insufficient free dhcp leases, on the box with the dhcp server try:- (for isc-dhcp-server) cat /var/lib/dhcpd.leases and compare that against the number available in your settings also:- service dhcpd restart Then try booting the PXE clients again. Also make sure it's not a general network problem (it happens). i.e. try booting a live CD (or the installed OS) from a client and pinging the PXE server. > > > The above is exact output of the prompt. > > Here's is my networking configuration: > > # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system > # and how to activate them.
