Hello Community
Could some one please point me in the right direction here. Iv installed VMware and a possibly handy looking vertual machine called UDA.
Info on this project can be found here
Basicly its a VM for booting different ISO's via PXE boot. It comes with its own DHCP server that's preconfiguard to handle the PXE requests. This works fine, but i would like to still use the ClearOS DHCP and have no idea where or what config files I would have to edit.
The only other possible problem I have is that I can only find a how to for setting a windows DHCP servers options, And I belive the options can differ in linux. The windows info is below
"1. Configure the following Scope Options or Server Options:
2. Enable the option 066 Boot Server Host Name, and set the empty string value to be the IP
address of your UDA
3. Enable the option 067 Bootfile Name, and set the empty string to be, pxelinux.0"
So if any one could tell me if this would be the same options needed for the ClearOS DHCP that would be grate
Could some one please tell me where to look :huh:
Thanks in advance

Dnsmasq is the program for DHCP. Can I suggest rather than edit dnsmasq.conf which is system maintained, if you're using new options, add a file to /etc/dnsmasq.d/ called anything you want. It will be read when dnsmasq starts. To server different settings on different interfaces, try adding the "localise-queries" line to your configuration. Have a look at "man dnsmasq.conf" for more information. You may also be able to add the interface as the first parameter after the "dhcp-boot=", but I am not sure. Have a look at the manual. -

Method 2:
Add this Code: dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0,UDA-DNS-NAME,UDA-IP
to file /etc/dnsmasq.conf
after edit, reload DHCP settings: service dnsmasq restart
pxelinux.0 this is the boot file, yes ?
So citrix PVS use a bootfile name ardbp32.bin
so my /etc/dnsmasq.conf file will have this
dhcp-boot=ardbp32.bin,pvs.mydomain.lan,192.168.102.5
to get it to pxe boot from my PVS server, is this correct ?
Thanks. -
