Hey guys,
I've got a support tech at a remote site that can't image machines at the moment. He imports the machine using the MAC. I have verified that the MAC is correct. We wait for the machine to hit the "All Systems" collection at the central sight, put it in the proper imaging collection and then wait for that change to replicate down to the management point. Once it is showing in the right collection on the management point, he boots into PXE. It pulls the correct Client MAC Address, GUID, Client IP, etc.. Finds the Gateway IP, next two lines are as follows;
--------------------------------
TFTP.
PXE-MOF: Exiting Intel Boot Agent
--------------------------------
I follow the exact same process at the other sites and those machines connect to the deployment server without a hitch and begin imaging. I tried pinging the deployment server from the remote location trying to rule out any network issues and it pings just fine. Nslookup pulls the correct machine name.
The smspxe.log shows the following each time the remote machine attempts to connect;
--------------------------------
MAC=FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF SMBIOS GUID=46746E94-D140-497A-8C46-5463A8F006FD > Device not found in the database. smspxe 3/22/2012 12:24:00 PM 768 (0x0300)

---------------------------------
We've tried deleting and reimporting the machine numerous times with no luck. Thinking it may be a hardware issue, he then tried another laptop and a desktop. Both of those machines fail the same way.
I've restarted the WDS service on the deployment server for good measure, but nothing seems to be working.
Anyone got any other ideas??
Thanks in advance!
