From Revision 1865 to 1846

Rev	Summary	Authors	Date
1865	Add debian preseed support to koan Add debian preseed support to koan	Konrad Scherer	13 years ago
1864	Add support for EFI grub booting. Add support for EFI grub booting. Patch switches location for download of loaders from mdehaan's fedorapeople page to my own. Here I have added two new grub images to be used for EFI booting, assuming you configure your dhcp server to use them. All grub related files are placed under a "grub" sub-directory beneath the tftp root. Sync will now generate an efidefault grub menu for your tftp server. This menu will contain options to boot all cobbler profiles at this point. You will also see a per-system menu generated under the grub directory for each system interface's MAC/IP, just as with pxe with the exception that these filenames are in uppercase. Includes a little dead code / style cleanup in pxegen.py.	Devan Goodwin	13 years ago

1862	Turn on the cache by default Turn on the cache by default Enable a negative cache, with a shorter timeout. Use the cache for normal lookups, not much ip-after-failed. These changes are needed because the time to do a search is pretty linear with system count. When the system count gets high enough, the server spends long enough resolving the system in cobbler that the client gives up and resends the packet, causing another resolve, causeing another block, causing another packet....

1859	in.tftpd needs to be run as root. Whoops in.tftpd needs to be run as root. Whoops	Douglas Kilpatrick	13 years ago

1856	Scott Henson pointed out that my earlier changes stopped a s... Scott Henson pointed out that my earlier changes stopped a sync from also copying kernel/initrd files into the web directry. Split out the targets from the copy, and make sure that sync still copies to webdir, and then also fixed where I wasn't copying those files in the synclite case.	Douglas Kilpatrick	13 years ago
1855	Put back code that I removed incorrectly. (sync DHCP, DNS) Put back code that I removed incorrectly. (sync DHCP, DNS)	Douglas Kilpatrick	13 years ago
1854	Support installing FreeBSD without an IP address set in the ... Support installing FreeBSD without an IP address set in the host record. FreeBSD's pxeboot does not do the sort of filename templating that pxelinux.0 does, so you can not easily look up the host by mac_address the way that you can from pxelinux.0 requests. However, since the freebsd install process does go through pxelinux.0 (to chain bootloaders), I can catch the pxelinux.0 request for pxelinux.cfg/<mac_address>, and use that MAC to look up the host, then cache the ip->hostname mapping for future reference. This commit adds that map. The tftpd server does not use it by default, you need the "-c" option. Data is only cached for 300 seconds. Because the cache relies on a sequence of events all being handled by the same process, it's more fragile than I'd like: if the tftpd server dies in the middle (slow server, timeouts), if the client is extremely slow and outlives the cache ...
