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