mss_https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/edubuntu-users/2008-December/004911.html18:32
mss_hardy DHCP problem with  not more than 4-5 clinets booting up..18:33
mss_which I have seen in our lab ...18:33
mss_other folks have seen this problem too ...18:33
mss_alkisg here suggested a few days ago to replace cdhcp3 server with dnsmasq which I did ...18:34
mss_things are a bit better now ..though the problem still happens ...18:34
mss_I have managed to tack down exactly when the server stops /slows response to DHCP client requests ..18:35
ace_suares1sorry, can't help you on that one!18:35
mss_It happpens as sson as the first client reaches the login screen ..18:35
mss_and this starts in the kernel logs :18:37
mss_Aug 14 18:38:08 192.168.0.62 kernel: Inspecting /boot/System.map-2.6.24-19-generic18:37

mss_Then DHCP gets hosed ...and the remaining clients do no boot any more ..18:38
nubaemss, what does the dhcp log say?19:35
nubaein /var/log/messages I believe19:35
mss_nubae: I pated the dhcp logs at http://pastebot.ltsp.org/47719:41
nubaewhat options are u passing in pxe.0.cfg/default?19:43
mss_standard dnsmasq config according to /usr/share/doc/ltsp-server/examples/dhcpd-dnsmasq19:44
mss_I have not set any other special options...19:45
nubaejust that dhcp is complaining about some option19:46
mss_what is this stuff going on in the kernel logs for each client and why is it so slow  ?19:47
nubaeanyway, #ltsp should be able to help u better19:47
mss_thanks19:47
nubaeu dont have remote logging turned on by any chance19:47
nubae?19:47
mss_how would I do that ?19:48
nubaeu'd set it in /etc/syslog.conf19:49
mss_I did not change anything from standard edubuntu install ... should it be turned off ?19:52
nubaeby default yes19:53
nubaeu'd really notice dhcp slowing down to almost a halt19:53
mss_nubae: if remote logging is turned off will I have this problem :20:20
mss_V20:20
mss_http://www.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/TroubleShooting#syslogd_cannot_write_to_remote_f20:20
mss_anyway ... will try it and see how it goes ..20:21
