I have a dhcp server running on openSUSE. In addition to setting up IP addresses, it instructs the systems where to find the tftp server that will serve up the boot image, as well as the boot image name. It is working great. Unfortunately, this now needs to co-exist on a network where there is a Windows dhcp server. The problem is that the windows server is faster at responding to the dhcpdiscover request than is the openSUSE server. Not much to do about that - race conditions are a fact of life. So, we thought we would solve this by duplicating the IP address and next-server/filename stuff on the Windows server. The result should be that the system still goes to the openSUSE box to get boot files. Unfortunately, this seems not to work as expected. We get the IP address. But is is unclear which option in the Windows server corresponds to Linux's next-server. We set one called 'boot host' that is described as pointing to the tftp server. But oddly we get nothing. I guess I am sending out feelers to see if anyone else has an openSUSE diskless boot sequence (boot images on an openSUSE tftp server) that involves a Windows dhcp server. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
