[wds] WDS TFTP Timeout!

[abillybob]

Hey Guys

 

Trying to image a computer, the client finds the WDS server but then it says TFTP Timeout and won't go any further? Not a clue why I have checked and everything I can see the server end looks fine and I haven't changed any settings? It used to work perfectly!?

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers

Have you tried restarting the WDS services? Is it listening on port 60?

have you installed any windows updates on the server recently? but check this thread http://www.edugeek.net/forums/windows-server-2008-r2/63922-wds-stops-working-clients-pxe-e32-tftp-open-timeout.html

I have just tried restarting the Service and it hasn't made any difference, No it doesn't have the Port 60 thingy checked, I thought that was only if it was also a DHCP server? (of which it isn't)

That only seems to be an issue if it's also a DNS server which this one isn't?

 

I tried it anyway, it worked! I should have searched I'm sorry, typical user over here! Cheers @sted
