Well spotted, thanks. I've committed the your fix to CVS. Dave Malcolm is going to post details later on how to get anoncvs access to the latest code. > My question: Where to set information about NFS location needed in > statelessGenPXEConfig.py? The base NFS path is store in the statelessServer LDAP object. See stateless-schema.txt for more details. To that base NFS path we append the configuration and snapshot names. So the example is: dn: cn=server1.company.com,dc=servers,dc=stateless,ou=services,$(LDAP_BASE_DN) objectClass: statelessServer cn: server1.company.com statelessNfsPath: /srv/stateless/snapshots and dn: statelessConfigurationName=artist-workstation,dc=stateless,ou=services,$(LDAP_BASE_DN) objectClass: statelessConfiguration statelessConfigurationName: artist-workstation statelessDefaultSnapshotName: artist-workstation-1 would mean that the NFS path used in the generated pxelinux configuration would be server1.company.com:/srv/stateless/snapshots/artist-workstation/artist-workstation-1 Thanks much, Mark.
