Hello All,
Here is my situation. We have a corporate office and 10 retail locations. I
want to implement thin clients in the retail locations that boot via PXE.
Each of the 10 retail locations have an IPsec VPN tunnel back to the
corporate office. Each of the client computers on the retail subnets receive
their IPs from a Windows 2003 SBS at the corporate office. This is
accomplished using DHCP relay on each of the retail subnet's router and a
superscope defining each of the subnets scopes on the Win 2003 SBS at the
corporate office. The LTSP server is Debian etch install and resides on the
corporate network. Here is the network structure.
Corp Office: 10.0.1.X (DHCP server is at 10.0.1.10, LTSP server is at
10.0.1.4)
Retail Location 1: 192.168.1.X (DHCP relay and VPN router at 192.168.1.254)
Retail Location 2. 192.168.2.X (DHCP relay and VPN router at 192.168.2.254)
etc.
1. I have no problem booting a thin client connected directly to the Corp
office network. I have the DHCP reservations for each MAC address set up to
supply the Boot Server Host (10.0.1.4), Root Path (/opt/ltsp/i386) and Boot
file (ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0) and all is well. No problems here. PXE boot work
like a champ.
2. I CANNOT get a thin client one any of the subnets to boot. They do get
the appropriate IP for their respective subnet from the DHCP server back at
corp, but then a no go on the TFTP. It times out. I have no idea where to go
from here. I am not a network expert and gt a bit confused with routing,
netmasks etc. However, I am a very fast learner.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Aaron J. Wood
