I'm pretty new at deployment stuff so please excuse my ignorance.
Company wants me to be able to remotely image and re-image our workstations. We have about 200 client systems we'd like to manage this way. At present I've inherited a 2.5 environment that I can't seem to get the new machine NIC drivers into a new boot disk so decided to try out PXE boot with GSS 3.0.
It's taken me a few days but I have the trial installed, PXE configuration set up and remote agents installed onto the OS only new system. I can start a new Job and it reboots the client, client boots into PXE, seems to find the DHCP server but fails with TFTP Timeout error PXE-032. There is a previous post on forums with basically exact same screen shot, his/her solution was to change the PXE server configuration to "Third party DHCP", I've tried this also.
PXE Server, TFTP are on the same server as GSS.
DHCP and Ghost servers are on the same subnet/vlan.
Network Engineer has said they aren't blocking anything, (referring to the ports ghost uses, will have to confirm 100% but so far he's said nothing is being blocked internally)
So far I have made the following configurations:
Added 66 and 67 in DHCP.
PXE Configuration Utility:
"no DHCP server installed on PXE server (use DHCP port)" is checked, but a post on forums stated "Third party DHCP" should be checked despite it not being the case, I've tried both options.
"Enable response to request from computers not in the GSS Database" checked
Status Tab has all services green
I've added MTFTP server service as dependent on PXE server service as another post has suggested.
I've changed many options in PXE Configuration but get the same TFTP timeout error. I did try a cmd line TFTP server test to pull the Strap.0 file. There is code at the top then a bunch of errors, not sure if any of it is useful.
Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
