I would admit you are absolutely correct. I should not have put the local admin into the group…

I was finally able to get back in. I appreciate all of your help!

@NT_Tech Access control is a plugin now which has much more use than the “mobile” vs “non-mobile” account.

FOG was indeed a single user system, from it’s original startup. The only thing that kind of made things different was the mobile interface.

I want you to understand, mobile interface was it’s OWN element from the main interface. This meant having to update two GUI platforms to ensure all functionality was maintained. When moved to a single interface that could do both mobile and full screen usages, I removed the “mobile only” user type.

I want to stress, while it wasn’t necessarily intuitive, even in 0.32 a “mobile only” user had exactly the same level of usage as the full admin users. The GUI access was limited and didn’t allow a mobile only user to see anything, but a mobile user could delete items, change things, etc… if they knew the url pathing and calls. They couldn’t see it, but it was not “limited” in the way you thought it was. As the access control plugin was created and managing a single interface made updating and keeping things in a more testable and common way, I decided to remove the “mobile only” option. This was not intended to hurt people who were using the element, but rather there were better things in place that did far better at controlling the scope of things and in a more granular and appropriate fashion.

@george1421 Thanks, with this commands above i was not presented to enter password, thanks.

@Sebastian-Roth Sorry, I completely forgot about this. Just updated to latest kernel on my server and tested on 1803, worked perfect. Thanks for the update.

Your dnsmasq configuration is not complete. It only addresses bios based systems. My recommendation would be to follow and use the dnsmasq configuration from this tutorial exactly. Don’t just patch your’s to match: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/12796/installing-dnsmasq-on-your-fog-server

I just tested using my api token for slack running the working-1.6 version of fog and am not seeing an issue.

Hi,
I want to add that I have done some changes in the reports, imaging log report too, to make pre-filters and not shows all the registries.

For example, in the imaging log report you can do a a prefilter by image name, user name or hostname. In this way, the result is more small and you don’t need erase registries in the database.

The new version of the reports are available in the “working” branch

@6rilT Just creating the rule isn’t enough. You need to assign the rule to a role. Users and rules are associated roles.

Name them with the number they require in the group.

Eg 01-snapin, 02-snapin, 03-snapin

@deckerta As well you might want to check out this wiki article: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Migrate_FOG

It’s all not a click by click thing but I’d say you can learn a lot of things if you are keen to. We’ll definitely help you. Just ask specific questions, post error messages and we sure will be able to guide you the way.

@lepage said in Is it possible using fog to restore only part sda2 ?:

I am not sure if you can see it … but from the filesystem when I do ls d1p* I see
d1p1.img d1p2.img d1p3.img

Absolutely. I know exactly where you are coming from. Yes it would be possible to implement. But can you see it from my perspective as well? Why implement it to enumerate the image files if it holds the truth only in case the image is still captured? Don’t get me wrong. I am not saying it wouldn’t be nice but as of now we have so many other things to fix in FOG and not many people helping that I can’t see us doing this. Sorry!

If you have time and knowledge you are most welcome to add the feature and send a pull request on github. 🙂

@george1421 Mixing up TFTP and HTTP URL here? Might be confusing.

@GrandIQ said:

... http://${fog-ip}/fog/images/...

Please make sure those URLs really work! Simply open them in your web browser and see if it would start the download. I fear it doesn’t because we have some URL rewriting in FOG active for the API backend to work. You probably need to move your images to a different folder further up, like /var/www/html/images/win7/... (URLs: http://${fog-ip}/images/win7/...).

@Fernando-Gietz I like that idea. Even if it is still error prone, it’s make things simpler overall. That could open snapinpack for tarballs too I would suppose.

Short answer: Maybe

Longer answer:
I don’t have the ability to confirm at the moment. But I can tell you that fog does record imaging registered hosts in a mysql table called imaginglog. The part I’m not sure of is if the log only uses an image id to refer to the host being imaged (logical link to the host table) or it saves the actual host name into this table.

The other thing I would have to check is if a host is deleted, is it a soft delete (only marking the host deleted) or does it remove the record. If its a soft delete it would then be possible to create a mysql query to report imaging even if the host record was not visible in the webgui.

The issue is if the host records are removed from the host table and the imaging log only references the host id field, there is no way to tell when a host was imaged since the pointer to the host table would not link to a valid host (since it was removed from the database)

@keith75140 Unfinished images are in /images/dev/... (folder names are client MAC addresses without colons).

@Titione Well then I would go and check for Bad sectors on that disk.

@george1421 what version of MDT are you running btw? I’m on 8450.

@Sebastian-Roth I can assist with the isc-dhcp configuration. I have a box here at home with two NICs I can test on, and I have a couple of spare routers and other spare computers laying around. My availability will be limited Friday through mid next week though, I’m heading out of town to visit the folks.

I went through exactly this problem on my network, I use a Cisco Catalyst 2960 X, which solved it was to configure spanning-tree on all ports, and configure portfast on all but the trunk port (since we use more than one DHCP here). Good Luck!

@strangerthandreams Sorry for the very long delay. I sort of lost track of your post.

I just tried to replicate the issue but for me adding an additional MAC with a leading number does work properly (tried different ones). So possibly this is somehow caused by the browser you use? I used Firefox and Chrome on Debian Linux to test. Which browser/OS do you use? Tried different browsers?
