PXE Guest Shell Question

[TheGoob]

Hey, I have a Nexus N9K-C93120TX and a while back I had installed the dhcp software on the guest shell, installed and was used perfectly. Since then I had shut it down and today went back to use it but decided to default the router back to stock and lost it all. I went to install it and apparently the download/ installation isn't valid anymore.. Like the link where it downloads from is no longer valid. 

This was the guide I used;

Yeah, that’s a common issue now — the original package sources aren’t hosted anymore, so the install script can’t pull them down. You’ll probably need to grab the packages manually or use a local repo. I’d check if anyone’s mirrored the files or shared a newer method; a few folks have run into the same thing recently.

Makes sense. I’ll see about trying to find them elsewhere. Than you for the update I appreciate it. If I happen to find any more info I’ll post it here.

Not sure if this works, i used long time back - try

guestshell
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server

As far as under guest shell on Nexus, those commands do not exist..But I do them on my Linux box.

When I get access, my Lab will test. I do not remember, since, as mentioned, we hardly use DC DHCP Servers.

Anyway, you get the Idea of what my views, you can look at the command line for what's available for you to set up

Well I did every google search and tried every thing I can do to get it working, even so far as to download the specific files needed [wow that was a pain to figure out] and then I get .rpm errors package not found yet I installed it.. Anyway, was this a 3rd party "community" thing or was this supported/ a function of Cisco?
