[Wish List] UFTPD Multicast client deamon in Ventoy - odie - 10-10-2024

For the Wish List:



- Create an ISO from your favorite OS with Refracta Snapshot (refracta.org)

- Pass the ISO to an UFTP Multicast Server (nuxref.com)

- Wake up all clients with Wake-On-LAN 

- Ventoy then boots on all clients (with Ventoy installed on HDD/SSD) with the UFTPD Client Deamon listening for the UFTP Multicast Server

  (or power the clients on manually, and select the "Start UFTPD Multicast Client" option from the Ventoy Menu)

- The ISO is sent from the UFTP Multicast Server to the Ventoy exFAT partition (#1) on the clients HDD/SSD.

- All clients are powered down after receiving the ISO



command syntax uftp: https://uftp-multicast.sourceforge.net/server_usage.txt

command syntax uftpd: https://uftp-multicast.sourceforge.net/client_usage.txt

downloads: https://nuxref.com/nuxref-repository/ 



.RPM packagages of UFTP/UFTPD are available for Fedora (not CentOS) and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (EL-packages),

so Fedora (free) would be the way to go for Ventoy?



How nice a solution that would be ....
