  @Daniel-Miller said in LDAP Bind during Login: Now, if you happen to know what the DN suffix will be, an alternative to the search and bind method would be a direct bind where the required static information is added to the username to create the DN that is proffered to LDAP for the bind request. Right, this is something like I was thinking about, especially on a domain-joined machine. I suppose I didn’t phrase it properly or concisely - that’s my bad. No particular reason for this functionality; just didn’t know if it would be something worth adding in or how difficult it would be to code into the plugin. No worries! Thanks for the quick reply!

  @Quazz In K12 its pretty common to treat many of your internal users as hostile (right or wrong) since students seem to always try to mess with things whether with malice or just screwing around. Also with some of the other changes in security on FOG (DB and HTTPS etc) pointing toward the outside to manage devices via the client doesn’t sound impossible for small deployments. Again, it’s not what I’m doing or planning to do, but it would be possible if measures like these were in place.

  I’ve added the adjustment to make an Orange Alert box in place of the versioning info on the storage node in the case the node is returning as offline. Thank you,

  I would have to agree. Snapins, at least if I remember correctly, can now be applied individually regard less of if they’re actually associated with the host. I can make the text change. Ultimately, like what you did for the Image Resize, I’d like to use the ( i ) icon’s to be more indicative of the actions and helpfully make fog a bit more natural to understand, but this isn’t a “bug” persay, and non instrumental in the overall functionality of FOG. I’m sure most understand, I tend to hate making text based changes. Not because they’re hard or unreasonable, but text - in my eyes - is not as important to the actual functionality. This can wait. We will work to fix this, but it certainly, in my eyes, does not have to be an immediate thing.

  Q

  Technically you can probably capture and deploy it in a non-resizable fashion (it will be slow since it will do a RAW capture), though I’m not sure if this will work reliably with such a filesystem. It’s closed source and only available on enterprise, so I don’t expect any open source solutions to arrive any time soon.

  @p4cm4n said in Associate all new hosts with Snapin: assign template host to template group, assign properties to template host. No don’t do this because it will create a loop. The names have to be exactly the same that is all. Every host added to the template group will cause the database trigger to fire copying the host template settings over to the host just added to the group. nothing that was ‘set’ is actually ‘deployed’ but rather with the sql hack/trigger, its just a property of the host Its possible that the settings are made in the database but because of database caching the FOG application may not see the changes until the cache is refreshed. So are you saying that the settings on the template host are not being copied over (like OU or some other parameter field) or is this a question about the snapins not installing?

  @Sebastian-Roth Sounds great! Like I said, let me know what you all are working on and I’ll do my best. I do have some background in programming but it’s been a bit. I am trying to pick up Python and do a little teaching here at our district. I worked in UNIX for a couple years at one of my first computer jobs. They hired me because I liked tinkering in Linux. I’ve used Linux since the first iterations of Redhat. :-) The FOG project does draw you in. It’s a great thing. Some of us can’t afford to throw cash at it but certainly am willing to donate time. So keep me posted! Thanks!

  @Yanis-Sauve said: I do the server updates, then a git pull each time. May I ask which git branch you are on? Run cd .../fogproject ; git branch to find out. For the database, do you think it would be possible to systematically display a page about the schema, update or not? I do get that sometimes the schema does not change, but each time I go through the fog install, I ask myself if everything is OK when no update page is displayed. While I understand your situation I don’t think we’d want to display the schema update page even though there is no update. If you are on dev-branch we might have an easier solution to this. We usually update the minor version number (1.5.7.x) every now and then - usually when bigger changes are pushed to the repo. I might just update this last digit of the version string ever time I push a change to the dev-branch. This way you see if it all worked by looking at the version number in the bottom right corner of the FOG web UI before and after updating.

  @TheDiskDrive Versioning adds a huge amount of space and is quite complex to implement I reckon. While I don’t say it’s a bad idea to do I don’t think we’ll find the time to add this feature any time soon. Feel free to engage!

  @Sebastian-Roth That’s true, though we could always just backup the current inits on the client side and add a “restore original inits” button.

  While I can’t speak for the FOG Project developers, I would say that managing MS Windows updates is not something that the FOG Project wants to enter. FOG’s focus is cross platform image deployment. I feel that moving into the MS Windows (only) space would be moving in a direction away from The FOG Project’s original charter. Also there are currently free MS Windows patch management solutions like Microsoft’s WSUS. There are other like free solutions like WSUS Offline Updater already in this space. In the linux space there is puppet, chef, and ansible.

  @LJay said in Client Inventory Option.: A PXE pre-loaded troubleshooting/inventory environment seems like the perfect, OS agnostic answer to this. I am not sure I get this right? Are you saying we should have inventory collection on PXE booting?

  @cmurray139 i’m not sure. I don’t have much experience with devices that don’t have Ethernet built in. if you search the forums, you might find someone who’s already solved the problem though.
