First Time PXE vs Subsequent Boots/Controlling Boots - dimitrirodis - 06-27-2023

Feature Suggestions for MSP/IT Admins:

1. Perhaps there is a "new PXE client" configuration (or "boot once" configuration) that can be used just to get the machine to boot into an ISO just one time.
1a. Also allow selection for injections/auto install script, etc.
2. Control which network interface the GUI can be accessed from (so not just 127.0.0.1:26000). Only allow once a username and password have been set.
3. Add image file upload capability to the GUI which will save files to the ISO location
3a. Configure the locations to search for ISO files on the server (not just the ISO location)
4. Perhaps when a machine boots to the iVentoy menu, the iVentoy web interface can allow us to control/select the option currently displaying on the endpoint instead of having to have a mouse/keyboard/monitor on the endpoint (which would help for remote reinstall scenarios). This may be difficult to implement but would be very useful.
5. Would like a command line option to use as a Windows Service (no GUI) so that when the PXE server is rebooted, iVentoy will start running again automatically.

I would very happily consider donation over and above the $49 commercial donation for these features.
