[Dnsmasq-discuss] client is unable to boot from

[Mahmood Naderan]

Hi
I have set up dnsmasq and others things on the server side and now I am 
trying to turn on the client. Note that both server and the diskless 
client are set up in Virtualbox.

The server configs are


/etc/dnsmasq
     interface=eth2
     domain=hpclab
     expand-hosts
     dhcp-range=10.0.2.52,10.0.2.100,static
     dhcp-option=42,0.0.0.0
     dhcp-boot=pxelinux.0
     enable-tftp
     tftp-root=/var/lib/tftpboot
     dhcp-host=08:00:27:69:73:7A,ws04,10.0.2.52



/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_eth2
     HWADDR=08:00:27:5a:3e:be
     TYPE=Ethernet
     BOOTPROTO=none
     IPADDR=190.200.0.1
     PREFIX=24
     #GATEWAY=0.0.0.19
     DEFROUTE=yes
     IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes
     IPV6INIT=no
     NAME="Auto eth2"
     UUID=0a22b666-db29-4f5c-9a2a-4a8fee7bb4ac
     ONBOOT=yes
     LAST_CONNECT=1361949463



ip addr
     3: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc 
pfifo_fast state UNKNOWN qlen 1000
         link/ether 08:00:27:5a:3e:be brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
         inet 190.200.0.1/24 brd 190.200.0.255 scope global eth2
         inet6 fe80::a00:27ff:fe5a:3ebe/64 scope link
         valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever



Now I start the dnsmasq in debug mode to see what is going on


# dnsmasq -d
dnsmasq: started, version 2.48 cachesize 150
dnsmasq: compile time options: IPv6 GNU-getopt DBus no-I18N DHCP TFTP 
"--bind-interfaces with SO_BINDTODEVICE"
dnsmasq-dhcp: DHCP, IP range 10.0.2.52 -- 10.0.2.100, lease time 2m
dnsmasq-tftp: TFTP root is /var/lib/tftpboot
dnsmasq: reading /etc/resolv.conf
dnsmasq: using nameserver 192.168.137.1#53
dnsmasq: read /etc/hosts - 2 addresses





But the clients receives this error

CLIENT MAC ADDR: 08 00 27 69 73 7A GUID: 
EF720459-193c-4558-8c46-15ff790fcd1c
PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received.

and the server stuck at the line "read /etc/hosts - 2 addresses"
