Internal RFE bug #132311 entered; will be considered for future releases. Just clearing out some old bugs here - sorry for the delay . s-c-nb can't work this way, because : o The pxelinux.0 boot client looks for .cfg files named with each whole byte sequence of its IP address prefix . You can sort of specify a default cfg file by just specifying one byte of the IP address, but that one byte must be specified. o The snapshot directory must be unique to each client, else we could have multiple clients updating the same writable files which are meant to be client specific. That's why each client creates its own snapshot dir if one is not specified. "The pxelinux.0 boot client looks for .cfg files named with each whole byte sequence of its IP address prefix ." and then looks for a file called default.cfg. Reopening. Pardon me, the file is called 'default', as mentioned in the original bug report. REOPENED status has been deprecated. ASSIGNED with keyword of Reopened is preferred. This bug is filed against RHEL 3, which is in maintenance phase. During the maintenance phase, only security errata and select mission critical bug fixes will be released for enterprise products. Since this bug does not meet that criteria, it is now being closed.
