alkisg: Hi, the issue with the onlogic cl250, "pxe-e21: remote boot cancelled" error, these pc's do not support legacy pxe boot. So i tried to run a tftp server in docker and in dhcp server config added (option 66 and 67) pointing to ipxe image and it  boots with no errors, what do i need to change in the ltsp to make it work?

I don't remember If you already tried it but you could try search from ipxe.org how to install the ipxe on local disk or USB and If it's successfull way to run pxe boot then omit The onboard Ethernet pxe booting. The ipxe is stored in local disk or USB. Just try If no other solution found
19:06
<mac41>
vsuojanen[m]: If i do that, will i be to boot from the ltsp server image?
19:11
<alkisg>
mac41: not sure what you mean, if you used options 66, 67 etc, aren't you using a normal pxe boot?
19:11
<vsuojanen[m]>
i think it's possible to build a local boot ipxe that installed and written e.x. on USB stick, then PC boot from The local disk and chainload script runs The pxe Calle to network
19:11
<alkisg>
I think what you're saying is "my clients have a faulty pxe implementation and I found a workaround"; the solution is to pinpoint the workaround and to migrate it from isc-dhcp to dnsmasq
19:12
E.g. maybe it's just that they don't like the tftp server of dnsmasq, and they prefer tftpd-hpa
19:15
<vsuojanen[m]>
mac41: yes your ltsp server stays in the network as is
19:16
<mac41>
alkisg: I used option 66 and 67 in a normal pxe boot to test if the clients could really do pxe boot because i cant get them to boot from my ltsp server pxe, that's what i mean. How can i get the to work for my ltsp server? If I migrate from dnsmasq to isc-dhcp will ltsp still work or should i say how do i configure ltsp to use isc-dhcp instead of
19:16
dnsmasq?
19:17
vsuojanen[m]: Oh got you.
19:22
<alkisg>
mac41, first try to set the ltsp server ip to 192.168.67.1, where it functions as a real dhcp server, and see if the clients boot
19:22
If so, they're having issues with proxydhcp
19:23
Another test would be to replace the tftp part of dnsmasq, with tftpd-hpa
19:23
While a third test would be with isc-dhcp, https://ltsp.org/guides/isc-dhcp-server/
19:27
<mac41>
alkisg: Alright i will run through these tests and come back if anything. Thanks.
19:28

19:29
<vsuojanen[m]>
mac41 good luck

alkisg: I tried giving the ltsp server the default ip , didn't work. I replaced the tftp to tftpd-hpa part of dnsmasq, that didn't work as well. Then I tried using the isc-dhcp-server with tftpd-hpa and it boots but it gets stuck here. https://prnt.sc/y1lWfkQ_Gz83
21:44
vsuojanen[m]: https://prnt.sc/y1lWfkQ_Gz83
21:46
alkisg: isc-dhcp-server with tftp didn't work but worked with tftpd to the point where it got stuck as i have sent in the screenshot.
22:02
<alkisg>
mac41: that means you either didn't run `ltsp ipxe` or you have the wrong ip for "next server" and it's trying the wrong tftp server
22:17
<mac41>
alkisg: I have just run the "ltsp ipxe" and its the same where it gets stuck. where would "next server" ip defined? like in what file.
22:18
<alkisg>
mac41: search for "next-server" in the link I pasted, https://ltsp.org/guides/isc-dhcp-server/

Thanks so much it has worked. I edited the line as this "next-server {IP};" and it worked. Thanks for the help!
