Re: [9fans] How to PXE boot with "two" DHCP servers on one network
Thanks for the solutions. I set the next-server ip on my router and got the second machine up and running. Didn't saw/know that there is an own configuration mask for network booting on my router. -marco -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T47150b930c3726bd-M59c48db885c9cb13a4970549 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription

And with the blackbox DHCP server in that router, it's likely impossible. If your file server is up all the time, just make it the DHCP server for the network. --lyndon -- 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T47150b930c3726bd-M66e55b39ec1885bbc552f3f8 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
