      Hi folks

      We've been running PFSense 2.0.1 for a while, and finally got round to upgrading to 2.1 yesterday. We use the Network Booting facility in the DHCP server setup to provide info to some VOIP phones we use. After the upgrade, none of the phones worked.

      Turns out, in 2.0.1 the backup xml file has "<next-server>192.168.0.5</next-server>" but this didn't import into the new setup. After putting the info in manually, then taking a new backup and comparing, there was a new entry "<nextserver>192.168.0.5</nextserver>" as well as the previous entry.

      Just thought it might help if anyone came across the same issue, did some searches and couldn't find it mentioned anywhere.

      Regards

        It was noticed a few times, we put a fix into the tree for it, 2.1.1 will find that and move it back where it belongs
