PXE:E53 error TFTP open timeout

[adrian villegas]

Hi;
I installed ICE with RDP 9.3 in a bl480c with w2008, the DHCP server is in other server.
The first error a had was E55, proxyDHCP not responding at port 4011, but I found that option 66 in the DHCP must have the IP of the RDP server (pxe) and 67 the boot filename.
Now I include option 66 and the error change to E53, (tftp time out open file) but I don't know what is the boot filename I must use with option 67. I tried with the path of the boot disk creator but doesn't work...
Anybody knows whats is the path I must use with the option 67?
I checked the ftp site dslib, it was stopped, but I started it and the screen shows " TFPT....... " I think that the problem is with the path in the option 67...!
Thanks!

Make sure your DHCP server settings correct and restart the DHCP server.

Look at Option 3 in the link below.

"This DHCP option will be 67; field type is a string equal to â BStrap\X86pc\BStrap.0â ."

Sorry Adrian.
Link on previous reply is not right.

Goto https://kb.altiris.com/display/1/index.asp?c=&cpc=&cid=&cat=&catURL=&r=0.1748316
Do a search for PXE Modes of Operation, go to PXE Forced Mode Utility (28035), click 27249 and look at Option 3.

This DHCP option will be 67 field type is a string equal to Strap\X86pc\BStrap.0.

Hi Terry;

I did the changes of the pdf for the option 67, but the error changes to PXE:E32...and the message "TFTP......." in the screen for some minutes!
Any idea. tx!

Terry;
I checked the TFTP manually and found that the Windows Firewall was closing the connection. I disable the firewall and now the boot is working fine! thanks for your help!
