‘/config/NetBootServer’ failed

[hetjan]

Hi,

I’m trying to set up a NetRestore scenario on a Mac OS X Server 10.2.6 using NetRestore and NetRestore Helper. I created the image (and blah blah blah), but when I copy the final image to the server it does not show up in the Image list. I even tried creating an ’empty’ NetRestore Helper image on the server. All permissions seem to be correct.

This is what I get in /var/log/system.log

Any ideas?

I did this and now Server Settings crashes on me when I open the DHCP module. I’m guessing I’ll have to take a different approach to this…after I reformat the server and set it up the way I want it

…on monday
