I had a question that maybe you guys would have an idea how I could = manage to do this. I have about 50 Soekris box lets say (I will actually have more than 100 = running..) and I have a main server station which they will be all attached to. Now I know that I could log into each individual Soekris nodes to do an = update of the source code using the updatep1 or updatep2 shell scripts. But going at around 100 logins.. this could be long and harsh to do once = every now and then. Do you know a way I could, from the server machine, update every = machines all at once without having to launch everything 1 node at a = time ?

For the ip address problem, hand the address out with your dhcp server that tells the diskless client where to get its boot file. The diskless client will keep that address as long as you don't have have ifconfig reconfigure it on boot up. If you need different config files, you could set that up with individualized directories on the nfs server or you could mount a partition from flash if you like. There are a lot of good tutorials on how to set up diskless. Once you figure out how it all works together it isn't too hard. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-diskle ss.html http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/network/netboot/ Alex
