@Matthieu-Jacquart the bzImage file has absolutely nothing to do with how snapins, printers, or the rest of the client’s operations work

Any of them so far. If I turn on the ‘Advanced menu login’ option from the dashboard, then the advanced menu is protected. But registration, memtest etc. are not.

Thanks,

Ollie

@jjacobs I’ll try replicating when I get to work.

Secure boot is turned off and legacy roms are enabled in the uefi.

I tried to mimic the settings changes that we do on our optiplex 3020’s.

I ran all the compatibility tests successfully. There was a partition error at first but I booted with gparted and took care of that.

Thanks for any help!

I was wondering if there is some replication of /var/www that is missing? How else does the menu changes get transfered to the storage host?

Also the error messages in picture in last post get me thinking that the file undionly.kpxe does not load? Because it says “/default.ipxe… OK” Should it not be undionly.kpxe there.
I have doublechecked my win 2012 DHCP for this and cannot see any fault there.

Great that you solved your issue.
Just wanted to talka little about the “default.ipxe” thing you brought up.

The boot file that the hosts use is what you specify (either in DHCP or dnsmasq). Those are always located in the /tftpboot directory. After that loads and does a few things, the hosts download default.ipxe and then give control to that and it takes over.

Linux is not windows. Change this hosts kernel device to either blank or the real device in linux.

How did you know?

@Tune389 said:

@ch3i okay thanks for the info. I try now to downgrade my fog version back to 1.2 …

That’s not supported nor advised…
To “downgrade” requires either restoring a previous snapshot (via a virtual machine) or rebuilding your FOG server from scratch…

You are exactly right. The fog server was not authenticated to the firewall. I’ll need to add a rule to automatically let it out.

Thanks!

Can you run the troubleshooting script found here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/4581/let-s-make-scripts

And see if it points anything out?

Run updates on the main server and nodes, make them all match.

[CODE]apt-get update
apt-get upgrade[/CODE]

Ensure FTP functions correctly on your nodes.

Also, it sounds like you’re using the location plugin ??
Ensure the locations are set properly. Reset them if you need.

E51 means the system is not getting DHCP

@tvigneau 😄

You have to create the node on the gui

Up to 3480 : no problem anymore

Wild.

@Alex-Grier we have multiple sites across the UK utilizing the Multiple TFTP servers, Location Plugin (where you can also specify that the node is TFTP if you do not want to use multiple tftp servers) and imaging is as quick on remote sites as it is local (since Junkhackers speed increases - 1GB LAN 14.68gb/min averaging out at 8.58gb/min!!) and images sync pretty quick thanks to Tom’s awesome addition to the replication allowing multiple streams and you can also control the bandwidth by adding bandwidth limits.

files in Linux that begin with a period are hidden.

ls lists files.
-a includes hidden files.
-l shows permissions and ownership.
-R is the recursive flag.

So this command would show every single file in /images and it’s sub-directories:
[CODE]ls -laR /images[/CODE]

You could pipe that with grep, which is a powerful searching tool and just search for .mntcheck

[CODE]ls -laR /images | grep .mntcheck[/CODE]
That will only show all instances of .mntcheck inside the /images directory.

There should be two.

I’d recommend (just for the purposes of troubleshooting) these things:

Default OU blank
use your domain Administrator as the default user
Administrator password

then, I’d play with the domain name…
Try your FQDN (fully qualified domain name)
Try your sloppy domain name (example for My.SchoolDistrict.k12.mo.us you’d just put in “My”)

No need to change any php files. This is FOG Trunk, the days of editing PHP files are over.

The rest of your settings look good.

Now, if none of this works… keep in mind that this client is in BETA. If you want to pursue this further, please contact @Jbob

Does your legacy client work?

Solved as the Apache error is corrected for in latest svn.

Let’s bump an old topic 🙂

Do I have to tag my FOGserver in all VLANS in order to get this plugin working?
And configure all VLANS on my FOGserver?

/etc/network/interfaces eth0.1 (default vlan) eth0.100 (vlan 100) eth0.1000 (vlan 1000)

No.

The WOLBroadcast plugin just needs your networks broadcast addresses specified. Once specified, you will likely need udp-directed-broadcast enabled on your switches. After that, fog will send WOL packet to each of the broadcast addresses.

This may have to do with another issue i am having…
