Not at all. And having the >server name in the URI is the trivial config, and most intuitive, too. Next-server is scoped just like other options in dhcpd.conf so you can have as many next-servers as there are images, or share them in groups. Next-server is actually more flexible in usage in DHCPD even if less easy to read than embedding the server IP in the filename. Don't fool yourself into thinking that generality of expression and adhering to a standard will automatically give you usefulness. Etherboot is not a web browser, the protocol is not TCP, you cannot fetch from just any server on the Internet without a lot of extra mechanism. |
