  @Kirill Great, I will add this to the fog-client in the next days!

  For the FOG translations you wanna take a look at the files here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/tree/dev-branch/packages/web/management/languages

  The master branch points to the current version (1.5.8 as of now) and for new things we work on dev-branch (as in the link above) or created feature branches. As we don’t have much changes in the language files currently I would suggest you work on what we have in dev-branch.

  Best if you grab a copy of the english version and start translating on that. I know there are many lines marked as fuzzy because of changes in strings. I was hoping to clean this up at some point but never got to it so far. If you are keen you are more than welcome to clean this up first. Would be really great!

  the firewalld configuration no longer works on Fedora 21.

  The commands succeed, but at least http is blocked still.

  Bumping this - it would be so nice to have SELinux enabled as a standard configuration.

  Nope it’s still heavily in the beta phase, I bet when we do have an idea we will post it on the forums or on the main site letting everyone know we are close. There is a thread you are more than welcome to monitor it can be located here ->[url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/latest-fog-0-33b.6476/[/url]

  @sebastian-roth Yeah, today’s tests look like a mess. Though, what your saying about this GPG key. All the tests use the same OS, same patch level each day. If there was an issue with a GPG key in master branch, wouldn’t it be true that the same problem exists in dev branch? Most days, this is not the case. Most days, just master branch fail for CentOS 8 and RHEL 8.

  There are ways to inject commands before installation, though the point of these tests is just to see in an automatic way if there are any issues that arise for a typical installation.

  @alomarh Well it depends on what version of linux you are using. This appears to be RHEL compatible OS.

  You can restrict the NFS server in FOG to limit access to a specific subnet range. You can do this without the need of a firewall. Look at the /etc/exports file. In the share line it starts with a star ( * ) replace that with the subnet range you want to share to. Look up nfs and exports for the exact syntax. Its hard to limit NFS to a single port range. You can do it, but you will need to make some configuration changes. NFSv4 is the way to go, but FOG is not there yet. I did experiment with it and it works with a few changes to the FOG server and FOS Linux.

  @vtl.victor I am not saying it’s impossible to do. It just needs work and we don’t seem to find the time to work on this. Your quickest way to achieve what you want is capture/deploy an image at your FOG network site. Don’t let the deployed host boot into the OS (add kernel parameter shutdown=1 to that host). Then boot that same host up with Clonezilla (for example) and for taking a backup that can be deployed at an offline site on USB - no FOG server needed there - just the Clonezilla boot media and image on portable drive. (cross references: 1, 2, 3)

  If that’s not what you want you need to dive into the details. Just quoting Junkhacker’s postfrom another topic here:

  FOG image capture and deploy are multi-step processes. each are several commands that rely on scripts and programs in the FOG OS (FOS) and change based on what options you have selected. FOG images are not designed to be used stand alone. Using FOG images without a FOG server will require steps that were expected to be automated and there really isn’t a quick way around it.

  So if you or anyone else is keen, you want to start looking at the commands to do this here:

  Clear old partition table: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/master/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh#L2012 Apply new partition table: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/master/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh#L2041 Loop to do the restore: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/master/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh#L2376 Finally call partclone deploy the image files one by one: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/master/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/usr/share/fog/lib/funcs.sh#L760 Restore UUID information: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/blob/master/Buildroot/board/FOG/FOS/rootfs_overlay/usr/share/fog/lib/partition-funcs.sh#L25 Possibly more things I have missed…

  And that’s just the simple case without resizing partitions!

  It’s all open source, it’s all yours!

  @londonfog Just wondering out loud but if that python script can hit the FOG API, and register that new host and then select image deploy when the target computer boots up for the first time and it pxe boots, it will boot right into imaging. So if you already have the image defined, then you would create one curl api call to register the new server’s name and mac address with fog, then a second curl api call to deploy your image.

  @sebastian-roth thanks for the information. Since everything else is running fine there has been no need to try the dev-branch. It’s good to know that it will be included in the next release.

  What exactly have you tried and what was the outcome/error?

  Just a quick note: FOG is made up of several open source tools to also allow for wiping disks. BUT we only provide those tools and have no share in them producing any kind of report or proof for you. So we probably won’t be able to help you with that point.
