Hi and please help ;-)<br><br>I have edubuntu server 64 set up on my box at home with two nics. What I wanted to do was set up my two kids with a client in the bedrooms so that I can monitor internet usage. But i keep running into a problem. I cannot get my clients to boot. After I set up the server I plugged my laptop in to try and boot over the network. It works flawlessly. It works very fast and has no issues. So then I tried to set up my first client. It's a dell Optiplex GX200 900Mhz with 256 meg of ram. This box should work, but I keep getting No DHCP server found.
<br><br>I have also tried an older HP Pavilion 8575C with a linksys nic card. so I burned a network boot rom based on the chipset (it is a Centaur-p)<br><br>I also get no dhcp servers. the actual error message is:<br><br>
centaur-p :00:04:5a:82:91:6a at ioaddr 1400<br>searching for server (DHCP) ....No IP address<br>.No ip address<br>.No ip address<br>.No ip address<br>.No ip address<br>.No ip address<br><br><br>Then I'll plug my laptop back in and I can boot over the network no problem...right into my Edubuntu Desktop. I'm totalily lost. I do not know what to do to trouble shoot the issue any further. Does anybody else have any suggestions?
<br><br>Thanks in advance<br><br>-ryan<br>
