Hi guys, I've been having a strange issue with my WDS/MDT setup on Windows Server 2008 R2. We deployed WDS/MDT combo on WS08 R2 a while ago. The WDS is on a different subnet (192.168.20.x), apart from the user subnet (10.148.160.x). All of this has known a clean setup (the wds/mdt server). So we have a DNS/DHCP server with ip 10.148.160.6, which has a domain forwarder in dns to a second separate domain. On the 10.148.160.x dc we included dhcp option 66 and 67 to refer to the actual wds server on the other domain. The strange thing here? This setup worked until a few days ago to deploy os'es (we deployed successfully 3 Windows 7's without any probs)... as usual nothing has changed configuration-wise (or it should have been documented)... Up until now we did not change the current config and setup, primarely because it worked. Everything we have tried, we rolled back by undoing the change if it did not work (as trying to change backward slash to forward slash for example). Now we are getting the infamous PXE-T04 which has stalked the web before as we found out. All previous resolves relating to this particular issue, did not resolve ours. I'll enabled advanced tracing on the wds, so i'll include the logs... the first error appears nearly at the end with a (more errors follow this one in the included log underneath) : [d:\w7rtm\base\ntsetup\opktools\wds\transport\server\tftp\tftpsession.cpp:564] Expression: , Win32 Error=0x5 (This path must be created by the wds itself, as this does not relate in any way to an internal path to wim files or any other setup files we created). Any help would be welcome guys, as this one seems to burden our future deployment of Win 7. With kind regards, Sven The actual log: [2648] 10:04:39: ===>Starting logging of module [WDSServer] [2648] 10:04:42: [MADCAP] Initialized.
