Remote PXE server -IP changed

Kuba's picture

Hi,

Sorry if this issue has already been discussed on the juice, but I couldn't find it.

I got a RDP/PXE server in main office and remote PXE server in remote office. All was working fine but I had to change the IP address of a remote PXE server in a branch office. I reinstalled the remote PXE but on the PXE console still getting old IP address.

How is the procedure of changing it. I probably missed something out.

I'm on version 6.8 (PXE 2.0.71.6)

any advice welcome
thanks
Kuba

Reinstall meaning...?

By reinstall do you mean you just did an install over the top of the install or did you do an uninstall the reinstall? During the reinstall, did you put the correct IP address in? I am not sure why it wouldn't work with a reinstall though.

I didn't remove previous installation. I just run component install\remote pxe, browsed for the machine (that means no typo :-) ) and run the installation. Restarted everything and on the PXE Configuration utility still see the old IP address. What's more, status is OK - green/white arrow. But PXE doesn't work in the remote office. :-(

You should probably do a full uninstall then reinstall PXE. If you just reinstall over the top, settings like IP address can easily be copied over to the new installation.
