DNSMASQ add-on for ReadyNAS Duo
Guys,
I would like to use my ReadyNAS Duo to boot diskless PC over the network (LAN).
To do that I have to run PXE server on the NAS.
After extensive research the only add-on which is close to what I need is DNSMASQ (contains full PXE server) from Whocares? (Whocares? is not active in the last two years). Of course the links in his post are not working:
For ReadyNAS NV/NV+/Duo/1x. (Sparc): Dnsmasq_2.52-readynas-0.1.1.bin
For ReadyNAS Pro/NVX/2,3,4xxx (Intel): Dnsmasq_2.52-readypro-0.1.1.bin
Do you know where can I get DNSMASQ add-on for ReadyNAS Duo from?
Other ideas on how to boot diskless PC from the NAS are very welcome.
Thank you in advance,
V
Model: ReadyNAS Duo [X-RAID] (Sparc)
Firmware: RAIDiator 4.1.14 [1.00a043]
Memory: 256 MB [2.5-3-3-7]
