I guess you suggestion might work for us, but it happened again.This time i edited that node type from the web interface to include pxe_boot_path = > a string whose value is '/tftpboot/pxeboot.emu-vga'
but freeing the node from the web interface still resets the pxe_boot_path field in the nodes table for that node to NULL ..
Any suggestions ?
cheers,

More specifically i see the problem in the nfree script Do we need this or can i comment this out ??The order is: * If nodes.pxe_boot_path is set, use that. * If there is a pxe_boot_path associated with the node type, use that. * Otherwise, use the global default (in the dhcpd.conf file). So, my first suggestion would be to use the node types (editnodetype in the web interface) and add a pxe_boot_path attribute. If it turns out that all the nodes are in the same type, then need to figure something else out. Off hand, I do not want to recommend that you comment out any code, not without refreshing my memory a bit more. Lbs
