Ok so its been a while since I have been here asking for help with Sophos, which is great.
But I have recently started toying with WDS and am about to throw my Sophos box out a window with how stupidly complicated and broken DHCP options are in XG
Ok so my first gripe is no GUI for DHCP options, I can live with a CLI if it was well documented and had built in help neither are true for XG unfortunately but I eventually configured both DHCP options 66 and 67 for PXE booting so I fire up a Hyper-V vm to test it out and...
Failure, the server ip is pointing to my Sophos box not the WDS server like I set and the boot file name is missing all the slashes it should be \boot\x86\wdsnbp.com but its being sent as bootx86wdsnbp.comÿ
Yes it even has that y at the end which is mighty strange
So I go to modify the DHCP options to try and fix it and have hit a brick wall as I cant edit the existing DHCP options or even remove them, despite having them set correctly in the first place so really I shouldn't have to modify them but Sophos is sending it out completely wrong and the is no way I can see of correcting its mistake
I'm starting to think that the people at Sophos are making it purposely hard to do PXE booting as google shows that even in UTM it was a pain to get working and it had a GUI for this
Any ideas on how I can fix this mess of DHCP options, my server is all setup but unless I move DHCP away from Sophos which I am reluctant to do it don't look like it will ever work
