| coolio | we just installed hardy and are experiencing dhcp problems, only 3 of 20 get dhcp and 4th get a lucky to a point | 08:22 |
| coolio | desperate for quick tip | 08:22 |
| stgraber | ogra_cmpc: around ? | 09:50 |
| stgraber | ogra: http://merges.ubuntu.com/i/italc/ | 09:51 |
| stgraber | ogra: any way you can mark that as "do not sync it" ? | 09:51 |
| stgraber | or do you need my own 1.0.9-rc3 ? as it's rc3 and I know it still contains some bugs fixed in SVN I didn't publish my packages (not even in the team PPA) but if that can help getting rid of the merge we can probably upload it | 09:53 |
| Nurionn | ah, I had same problem like coolio: dhcp-server in hardy seems to be broken | 10:22 |
| Nurionn | if I startup multiple clients at the same time, no-one will get an ip... | 10:22 |
| Nurionn | in gutsy it works fine | 10:22 |
| Nurionn | is there a known bug? | 10:28 |
| ogra | stgraber,having the rc before thursday would be fine to just have it from teh merges list, we can still upload more later | 11:10 |
| ogra | Nurionn, no, and its the first time i hear about that (hardy is two montsold now) are you sure there is no other dhcp server in your network and yur configuration is ok ? | 11:11 |
| ogra | *months | 11:11 |
| stgraber | ogra: when generating a new source package for Ubuntu, should I remove all the PPA builds from the changelog ? | 11:21 |
| ogra | yes and merge possible changelog entries | 11:27 |
| Nurionn | ogra: yes, I made the same configurations I made in 7.10 | 11:41 |
| Nurionn | for now, I reinstalled 7.10 parallel to 8.04, so I am still able to do some tests from time to time | 11:42 |
| Nurionn | ogra: you're back, are you? | 11:44 |
| stgraber | ogra_cmpc: ok, I updated my changelog to include your 1.0.8 upload and I'm test building 1.0.9-rc3 | 11:49 |
| ogra | cool, thanks | 11:50 |
| ogra | Nurionn, yes | 11:50 |
| Nurionn | ogra: do you know anything about that dhcp-error, coolio and I have? | 11:50 |
| ogra | not more than i said before | 11:51 |
| ogra | but i'm pretty sure it just works for a lot of other eople so i'D be surprised if it was dhcpd's fault | 11:52 |
| Nurionn | it's strange, because in gutsy it works fine | 11:52 |
| Nurionn | I, too, thought that it was an error I did, until I saw the question of coolio | 11:53 |
| Nurionn | I made same configuration in gutsy and hardy (they're installed on the same server) -> if I start hardy, it doesn't work but in gutsy it does | 11:53 |
| Nurionn | or more precisely: it doesn't work if I connect multiple clients on the same time | 11:54 |
| Nurionn | if I wait until one started up and start then another one, it works mostly | 11:55 |
| ogra | sounds more like a network problem to me | 11:58 |
| ogra | define "doesnt work" more precisely | 11:59 |
| ogra | whats the error you see on the screen | 11:59 |
| Nurionn | the clients didn't receive an ip adress (and can't boot though) | 11:59 |
| ogra | and did you check the logs of the dhcp server if it gets requests it doesnt answer in time etc | 11:59 |
| Nurionn | PXE-E51: No DHCP or proxyDHCP offers were received | 11:59 |
| Nurionn | in /var/log/syslog i saw the entries: dhcpdiscover and dhcpoffer -> but then it stopped | 12:01 |
| Nurionn | nothing more | 12:01 |
| Nurionn | "sounds more like a network problem to me" - that's what I thought first | 12:01 |
| ogra | the entries ? | 12:01 |
| ogra | how many ? | 12:01 |
| ogra | do you see a request for every offer ? | 12:01 |
| ogra | err | 12:01 |
| ogra | s/offer/client | 12:02 |
| Nurionn | yes | 12:02 |
| Nurionn | request -> offer -> request -> offer | 12:02 |
| ogra | thats a plain hardy install without any modifications ? | 12:02 |
| Nurionn | err | 12:02 |
| Nurionn | I mean: discover -> offer -> disover -> offer | 12:02 |
| Nurionn | sometimes there are following: request -> ack (and then sometimes it starts another time) | 12:03 |
| Nurionn | I did the following things: | 12:03 |
| Nurionn | - install hardy | 12:03 |
| ogra | and you are sure there is no other dhcp server in your network anywhere ? | 12:03 |
| Nurionn | yes | 12:04 |
| ogra | a rounter or so | 12:04 |
| ogra | *router | 12:04 |
| Nurionn | its a seperate vlan | 12:04 |
| Nurionn | and in the same environment it works with gutsy (even if I start 20 clients at the same time) | 12:04 |
| ogra | i stopped your list, so what else did you do beyond installing hardy | 12:05 |
| Nurionn | - change in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (adding: Driver "vesa" - but it should not matter) | 12:06 |
| Nurionn | - install server-kernel (for more than 4gb ram) | 12:07 |
| Nurionn | - installing x11vnc | 12:07 |
| Nurionn | - configuring /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf (entries for each client: mac-address, fixed-address, host-name)) | 12:08 |
| Nurionn | - creating some users | 12:08 |
| Nurionn | ah and I installed flash/java for firefox3 | 12:08 |
| ogra | can you try with the default dhcpd.conf ? and with the -generic kernel ? | 12:08 |
| Nurionn | I could, but it would take some time (server is in the other building) | 12:09 |
| Nurionn | should I? | 12:09 |
| ogra | well, might be that the server kernel has a prob with your NIC, who knows | 12:09 |
| Nurionn | ok, I'll try then | 12:10 |
| Nurionn | brb | 12:10 |
| ogra | i know the default setup works for ost people out of the box | 12:10 |
| ogra | i havent heard about such a prob the last two months | 12:10 |
| ogra | and your symptoms really look like a second dhcpd in the network | 12:10 |
| ogra | but if you say that cant be .... | 12:10 |
| Nurionn | if it would be, why should gutsy work? | 12:11 |
| ogra | your vlan setup works for one but not for the other ? | 12:14 |
| Nurionn | re | 12:26 |
| Nurionn | yes | 12:26 |
| Nurionn | now I tried with default dhcpd.conf and 2.6.24-19-generic kernel | 12:26 |
| Nurionn | same problem | 12:27 |
| Nurionn | vlan is not the problem I believ, for I made a direct connection to the switch in the other room on monday, and that didn't work either | 12:27 |
| joebaker | ogra: My tftpd-hpa issue went away with following the install directions for Edubuntu 8.04 (installing Ubuntu first from alternate CD with F4 Option to create LTSP server) then loading Edubuntu Addon CD. | 13:07 |
| ogra | great to hear :) | 13:09 |
| stgraber | ogra: http://www.stgraber.org/download/ubuntu/italc/ | 13:27 |
| stgraber | ogra: that version contains the debug version of x11vnc. The user won't see it but that can be useful for debuging some memory issues with x11vnc. | 13:28 |
| Nurionn | so I'm off until tomorrow. for my dhcp-problem, here are some additional information: | 14:52 |
| Nurionn | /var/log/syslog: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21402/ | 14:52 |
| Nurionn | /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21404/ | 14:53 |
