Single User/Rescue mode for the win.

Maybe, boot into a live CD and chroot the root directory, and then change the password that way?

Im very happy to hear this.

The last time I used FOG was out of desperation when we had 100s of computers corrupt with a faulty windows update at a university.

I brought down our recovery time to 15% 🙂

Thanks a stack.

OK, that makes sense. Probably snapins began too soon.
I will check that, thanks.

I would get the ClamAV info directly from their site and use them to update your init.gz . Personally though, I would not update or even use ClamAV. I have had very bad behavior from it as of late, and wouldn’t even take its scan results seriously.

In 192.168.1.100 host I do " aptitude search ftp " and says that ftp is installed

I have Debian 7.

It could be happening that FOG has no permision to read/write in storage host 192.168.1.100?
Disk Information in FOG web page is not available too

Do you happen do know what file this modifies?

JC,

Thanks for sharing this information! We were looking for an easy way to automate up/downloads of images that we use for automated testing and your solution was a great start for us. I have very little Python experience, but was able to make the modifications needed to get your example working with FOG 1.1.2. Many thanks for your work!

Cheers,
Dave.

Thanks for the reply it helped!
Last time I did this it took over 16 hours. I must have down something wrong so I rebuilt the server with the new version of FOG and it seems OK. Now test downloading and maybe get a handle on what snap ins offer

Hi,

here is my idea to give us more flexibility:

Would be nice to have.

Actually I do mean the same system. I have several hundred systems that need to be wiped and then donated to local schools and or charities. But before they can be donated they must be inventoried to include hard drive serial #

[quote=“generallee989, post: 33317, member: 25002”]would you recommend using Ubuntu 14.04?[/quote]

I would [U][B]NOT[/B][/U] recommend using Ubuntu 14.04

Thanks Tom. I didn’t pretend to criticized Fog in any way because I think it is a great tool and there is an excellent work behind it.
We think that multicast is a very good way to get the best from network bandwidth if you are sending the same image to multiple clients, so we think that a product like fog could take profit of this.
From you answer I guess that multicast is not a priority so I will follow your advise and I will try to modify code to allow multiple multicast transfers. The only thing I wanted to know it was if that was in your roadmap.

Thanks a lot anyway.

Frank

While it’s not recommended, it is possible.

However as junk suggests, I would not perform an import of the database especially if you’ve already installed FOG 1.x.x as you’ll be essentially creating an update that shouldn’t have to happen and could corrupt other issues.

Hi,

you can adapt this exactly for your case your just using nfs and ftp on a different device then a windows machine.
Good luck: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/how-to-setup-a-fog-storage-node-without-installing-fog.4294/[/url]

the logging for snapins is done in the database in the snapinTasks table. this is where snapin tasks are created and when completed the stState is set to 2, stReturnCode tells you if it reported success or failure.

Hi,

deleting them in filesystem will cause them exist in the db anyway, the normal way to delete them would be:

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 32984, member: 7271”]If you don’t know how to get the Encoded password:

Here’s how (useful if you wanted to script all of this):
Autologin password is the password with a salt of “Password”

So you can run:
[code]base64 ‘mypasswordHerePassword’[/code] And the value that generates is what you would put in the <Value>YOUR ENCRYPTED PASSWORD</Value>

For the AdministratorPassword stanza, the same is true but the salt is “AdministratorPassword” so:
[code]base64 ‘mypasswordHereAdministratorPassword’[/code] And the value that generates is what you would put in the <Value>YOUR ENCRYPTED PASSWORD</Value>

For the LocalAccount password is the same with salt as the AutoLogin with a salt of “Password”

Hope this helps you all out.[/code][/quote]

My bad orgot to mention something to that end, just bolded the <Value>YOUR ENCRYPTED PASSWORD</Value> to make it a little easier to read 🙂

Thanks for the suggestions 🙂 I have plenty to be working on now on Monday.
