Global Network Config PXE Boot 0.0.0.0 #720

Closed Snify89 closed 2 years ago

Snify89 commented 2 years ago

I am using TS 5.6 and have the following packages enabled/disabled:

package netfiles package networkmanager package udisks

package udisks-glue

package ts-classic

built in the image (build.conf) and can boot via PXE

I have also added the following in the thinstation.conf.buildtime

NET_FILE_ENABLED=On NET_FILE_METHOD=tftp

anything else is left by default such as NET_USE=BOTH NET_USE_DHCP=on

The PXE booting works fine from the tftp server. However, when Thinstation tries to load the global config file (thinstation.conf.network - in a ts5.6 subdirectory), it fails because it tries to load from the IP-Address "0.0.0.0"

I thought, that it would load the config files via tftp from the current DHCP settings, or am I missing something?

The fallback to the default thinstation.conf.buildtime works fine, after the failed attempt to load the thinstation.conf.network

Thank you in advance for your help.

netfiles wont work with networkmanager, you need autonet

I can't find a package named autonet in Devstation 5.6 Is this included in the ts-classic package?
