Hello,

I have an Altiris Deployment Server 6.9 SP2 (which is also a PXE server) installed on Windows 2003 server.

I would like to install a second (remote) PXE server on a Windows 2008 SP2 64-bit server.

Is this supported?

Unfortunately, the AKB # 44067 does not show supported platforms for PXE servers:

Thank you!
Peter

Yes, it is supported.

Now, there is problem if the DHCP server and PXE are present in the same box.   To address this open PXE configuration tool and select the PXE server tab.
Change the bottom option from the first option to the second (sorry I dont recall the names of these fields :)).  Click save and ok.
