Added 'next-server 192.168.2.1' and its now finding www.mirrorservice.org !!!
What was finding that? The pxe client?
Okay TFTP does not seem to need next-server its the next server it
uses after TFTP AFAICT.
No, it's supposed to be the address of the tftp server. I have no idea
how the pxe client is getting to the tftp server without that. Maybe it
defaults to the gateway address if next-server isn't supplied.
I still don't understand the 192.168.1.111 address which is the
gateway on the internet router (very nonstandard ISP proprietory
router) that the enp4s4 ethernet that my BOOTP server connects to.
What don't you understand? That's the IP address that any network
device has to pass packets to get outside your network. It is a very
unusual address though.
internet -> 192.168.1.0 router (with 192.168.1.111 gateway) -> enp4s4
(Fedora DHCPD server) enp5s5 -> booting client machine
Ok, that's what I was looking for. You dhcp/tftp server has two
ethernet ports and the pxe client is on the far side of that.
Anyway I have it functioning now but if it is better to have another
gateway address I would be interested in knowing how to do that.
The gateway specified in the dhcp config for the enp5s5 interface should
be the IP address of the enp5s5 interface. Since things are working, I
assume that's what you have now.
At the moment I am MASQUERADE'ing from enp4s4 on 192.168.1.X to enp5s5
on 192.168.2.X :-
Given your network configuration, that is required.
