[pfSense Support] Windows Deployment Services DHCP/PFsense TFTP ?
I was wondering on how to enable WDS (Windows Deployment Server) together with DHCP within pfSense. Anyone being succesful with this ? When using DHCP of Windows Server itself, it works just fine... but when using the DHCP within pfSense, it seems the WDS cannot be found. The bootfile would be boot.wim, I do add the IP address of the WDS and as filename boot.wim - but the PXE boot comes back with the message that the file would be invalid ? Any clues here ? thank you in advance... - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
[pfSense Support] Windows Deployment Services - DHCP options 60/66/67
Might it be, that these options should be possible to add to pfSense. I can add options 66 67 (boot-server boot-filename)... but option 60 would be the name which should be set to (PXEClient) I guess that would be the reason, for not being able to boot via PXE, to the WDS ? (it's all fairly new to me, I might talk jibberish here) Kind regards, Michel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
Re: [pfSense Support] Wake On LAN - Now Works on 1.2.3 Embedded!
Motherboards (and ethernet cards) that are PCI 2.2 (or above) should support PME (Power Management Events) signals to be sent back and forth without the need for a WOL cable. For that to happen you sometimes need to enable PME in the BIOS (sometimes called Enable Wake On Lan) along with Reserve Power for PCI Cards which keeps the PCI cards powered up during ACPI/G1 or G2 states (Sleep, hibernate or shutdown). mitch Peter Todorov wrote: What you do on client machine?

Also if ur nic is a pci or pcie nic the wol cable must be connected to the motherboard header for it to work with wol. Chris I just tried WOL using an Intel 1000GT PCI NIC, (using no wol cable between the NIC and the motherboard) and it works fine. The tested motherboard is a GA-EP31-DS3L, which (sadly) does not have WOL in the BIOS. Certainly many NIC's and motherboards will need those cables, clearly not always. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
[pfSense Support] redirect..possible?
I would like to run an ident program on pfSense such as the wident package.. But, my issues is users that run iRC and the need for ident. The package runs fine and if the pfSense is queried from the outside to TCP 113, it does answer. However, the client PCs are requesting an ident response and the IRC servers are sending it to the CLIENTS and skipping over the firewall. I noticed this due to firewall logs such as: Dec 19 10:52:40 WAN 66.186.59.50:57757 192.168.1.4:113 TCP:R so how can I take any incoming requests to 192.168.1.* on TCP port 113 and have the pfSense firewall deal with them directly? Is that even possible? -- J.D.

(it's all fairly new to me, I might talk jibberish here) WDS, by default, will respond to PXEboot clients. No special configuration of dhcp is necessary. At least that's been my experience with Windows Server 2008 as (separate) dhcp and WDS servers. In fact, I had LTSP clients, for which I specifically changed options 16(IIRC), 66 67, but they continued to connect to tftp on the WDS server until I discovered that WDS has the option to respond to PXE requests or not, and it was not until I disabled that option that my PXE clients could boot from some other server, despite any settings on the dhcp server. db - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org

I've thought about having some sort of storage add-on for secondary drives (or USB) for use with certain packages like Squid or FreeSWITCH on embedded, or even full installs with a small(er) OS drive. As 2.0 heads toward being more appliance-friendly, this seems more and more relevant.
