DHCP/PXE configuration problem[URGENT]
 

Hi
I need to setup dhcp server on my opensuse 10.3.

# /etc/dhcpd.conf

default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
ddns-update-style none;
ddns-updates off;
allow booting;

class "pxe"
{
match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier,0,9)="PXEClient";
}
class "etherboot"
{
match if substring(option vendor-class-identifier,0,9)="Etherboot";
}

# Subnet for PXE boot installation
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0
{
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
pool
{
range 192.168.0.202 192.168.0.203;
default-lease-time 180;
max-lease-time 360;
server-name "192.168.0.103"; # IP of DHCP server means own IP
allow members of "pxe";
allow members of "etherboot";
}
}



host # rcdhcpd restart

My host is cramiping showing following error

Not searching LDAP since ldap-server, ldap-port and ldap-base-dn were not specified in the config file
Wrote 0 leases to leases file.

No subnet declaration for “eth0” (0.0.0.0).
** Ignoring requests on “eth0”. If this is not what
you want, please write a subnet declaration
in your dhcpd.conf file for the network segment
to which interface “eth0” is attached. **

Not configured to listen on any interfaces!

Anybody has idea what's going wrong ?
Thanks in advance

please do not mark threads as urgent. This is a voluntary forum and it is not urgent for our members who kindly donate their time to help others.

Have you given any network interfaces the IP address 192.168.1.1 for example so the dhcpd knows which interface to listen?

regarding the input of Zmyrgel

The option is missing if you server has more then one Nic:

server-identifier

looks like this:

there you go

@dadapeer.md please open a new thread or can you tell us what this post hast to do with DHCP/PXE configuration problem and OpenSuse ?

error still persists
 

Thanks for the reply(@Zmyrgel and @odcheck)
I have tried DHCPARGS with eth0
as well as network interface with ip but problem still persists.
Any more ideas.

Are you sure that dhcpd service is started?
And Do you really only want a DHCP Server nothing else? If so then backup this dhcpd.conf in /etc and replace it
with the one .../share/doc/dhc****/dhcpd.sample.conf

change the values within it and then you've got a working config.
Next step check with chkconfig --list dhcpd if the DHCPD Server Daemon is startet in Runlevel 235
if not do a chkconfig -level 235 dhcpd on and then /etc/init.d/dhcpd start

Cause in Your config shown above it looks like you want to tread it like a pxe / tftp server without the tftp kernel files...
