I'm trying to get DHCP Solaris 8 jumpstart working with the ISC dhcpd server
instead of Sun's included DHCP server with no success. I'm going off of a
Sysadmin Magazine May 2004 article on the subject and various posts online.
I've yet to find a very definitive guide on this. Does anyone have this
working??
What I've done:
1) Installed jumpstart server from the two Solaris 8 CDs
(setup_install_server....)
2) Ran: './add_install_client -d SUNW.Sun-Fire-V240 sun4u' & got this output:
To enable SUNW.Sun-Fire-V240 in the DHCP server,
add an entry to the server with the following data:
Install server (SinstNM) : jumper
Install server IP (SinstIP4) : 10.1.60.21
Install server path (SinstPTH) : /export/JS/sol8/02_04
Root server name (SrootNM) : jumper
Root server IP (SrootIP4) : 10.1.60.21
Root server path (SrootPTH) : /export/JS/sol8/02_04/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot
3) Using this for dhcpd.conf (SUNW info here only). Using dhcpd 3.0.3:
===========================
class "SUNW.Sun-Fire-V240" {
match if option vendor-class-identifier = "SUNW.Sun-Fire-V240";
vendor-option-space SUNW;
option SUNW.sysid-config-file-server
"jumper:/export/JS/sol8/config/serv
er/asd";
option SUNW.JumpStart-server "jumper:/export/JS/sol8/config";
option SUNW.install-server-hostname "jumper";
option SUNW.install-server-ip-address 10.6.60.21;
option SUNW.install-path "/export/JS/sol8/02_04";
option SUNW.root-server-hostname "jumper";
option SUNW.root-server-ip-address 10.6.60.21;
option SUNW.root-path-name
"/export/JS/sol8/02_04/Solaris_8/Tools/Boot";
}
subclass "SUNW.Sun-Fire-V240" 00:03:ba:dd:d5:df;
===========================
4) do 'boot net:dhcp - install'
4.1) I only get several 'Timeout waiting for BOOTP/DHCP reply. Retrying....'
The tftp service is up & working on the jumpstart server.
5) The snoop on the DHCP/jumpstart server I only get:
OLD-BROADCAST -> BROADCAST DHCP/BOOTP DHCPDISCOVER
jumper -> solclient01 DHCP/BOOTP DHCPOFFER
OLD-BROADCAST -> BROADCAST DHCP/BOOTP DHCPREQUEST
jumper -> solclient01 DHCP/BOOTP DHCPACK
Any ideas?
