Server updates broke my WDS

[sparkeh]

Latest bunch of updates did something bad to WDS and machines attempting to pxe boot just timed out

 

Haven't tracked down the update yet but if you have the same issue you need to change HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WDSServer\Parameters\UdpPortPolicy from 1 to 0 then all is well.

I spotted I have exactly the same issue the other day but as it was just a test machine I've not go any further into researching it.

 

Thanks for the fix!
