Sorry, I haven't been monitoring the list. (I don't currently have access to a pxe server, so you'll need to check my memory). Try:- /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf ensure "authoritative;" and "ddns-update-style none;" are un-commented (if you haven't done so already) # grep dhcp /var/log/syslog | tail -n 32 To see current leases and compare against configured number of leases (lease address range) in order to determine how many free addresses are available, consult:- /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases > Also just wanted to say that the guys at our college has something called > cyberoam filter, which also acts as a dhcp server, but now the dhcp > server is disabled. I assume you mean the dhcp server on the cyberoam device has been disabled.. . and yes, more than one dhcp server on the LAN can cause problems. If you the cyberoam device is the LAN DNS server I'm not sure what the best solution would be (Cyberoam is non-user user-friendly, otherwise not so much). Temporarily isolate the LAN segment you are working with from the DNS server? Perhaps the administrators will add a directive for the pxe server and tftp server. From what limitations I recall of the web interface they'd need to use a serial console and edit dhcpd.conf (based on what you already have on your DNS) to add:- next-server "yourTftpServer" file name "pxelinux.0" I'm not certain about how you'd modify dnsmasq on it. I'd also try starting an install with just two boxes, one that previously failed and one that previously succeeded - starting the previously failed one first. > For starters I installed the server packages from this guide. > http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-debian-wheezy-apache2-bind-dovecot-ispconfig-3 > > And the dns and tftp configurations was done using this guide. > http://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-a-pxe-install-server-for-multiple-linux-distributions-on-debian-lenny > > And finally placed the tftp boot files in the directory as specified > in the official debian guide. > https://wiki.debian.org/PXEBootInstall#Set_up_TFTP_server The last reference looks good, and refers to the following.
