  @zorderelda The info you are looking for, unfortunately doesn’t exist outside of the brains of the developers. And I agree we really need to get some documentation on this to grow the list of available plugins. I’ve done some tweaking of a few plugins and I can say they are not difficult but also a pita at the same time. I worked on / with 2 plugins the LDAP and the Persistent Groups. The persistent groups was created by the developers to aid in installing a sql trigger that simulates persistent groups in FOG. It is the most simple one with no menus or outward appearance that it has been installed. The ldap plugin is a bit more complex, but it also shows you how to create tables, hook into a process. It also has a display/editor page. I can tell you the graphics at the top are fonts based on the font awesome library http://fontawesome.io/ The fog application has and calls out hooks at certain functions and as a plugin programmer you can tie into those hooks to add function to fog. That is about it from what limited knowledge I have.

  @tom-elliott Thanks for the reply. This is from our main server. I just built that one and put it in place to test it. That FOG version is 1.4.4, running on the latest CentOS 7. We have a much older one running Ubuntu that I would like to replace.

  What I like to do is take a current working plugin, make a copy, and adjust for the needs.

  @Tom-Elliott That makes sense. I figured I would at least report it and talk about it. Thanks. :) You can close this!

  @AngryScientist said in MAC Address Questions: But much to my horror, the FOG client will task restart the host when connected to Wi-Fi, which ends up in a boot-loop and a very concerned end-user. So to avoid this, just don’t create imaging tasks for laptops unless they are hooked up to the network with a patch cable, and leave all your MACs enabled so you can still use snapins. I don’t know what your setup looks like or how your operations go where you are, but the way I did laptops in great numbers was I hooked up an 8 port 1Gbps switch on a big table, hooked that up to the building network, setup myself some power strips and some laptop adapters, and I used my pre-made FOG Groups to queue all of the turned-off laptops for unicast imaging. Then I hooked up 8 at a time and powered them on. When one completed imaging & domain joining & snapins, I shut it down afterwards and hooked up another.

  @Fernando-Gietz While, theoretically possible, the password in the db is there as nothing more than a show. The password is not encrypted. It’s hashed, and a hash cannot be brought back to the password. You would have to brute force until you found a match and even then we are checking if the type is valid. So it IS possible, but very very unlikely.

  @Wayne-Workman Thank you for taking the time to look into this, and I’ll just chalk it up to weird things that happens to me. Thank you for all your efforts and advise.

  @george1421 said in pre and post image scripts: Thank you very much for your replies. I think that the complexity of implementing this kind of security measure doesn’t worth the time. Perhaps just restricting access to several subnets is more than enough. I will go that way. Thanks!

  Nice! Thank you @Junkhacker and @george1421 I just changed it to work with the clients MAC address and it seems to work like a charm! So now, i have this config: iseq ${net0/mac} XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX && goto chainboot || goto fog.local :chainboot set pxeserver:ipv4 XXX.XX.XXX.XXX set next-server ${pxeserver} chain tftp://${pxeserver}/pxelinux.0 exit I will do some testing but i am verry optimistic ;) Thanks!

  @andreas.paul said in Invoke hostinfo.php from powershell: Im intrested in the option to query the database direct, do you have any snipped for this? I’ve only done it with BASH, it’s easy in bash. Here’s an article about doing it in powershell. All I did was google-search “powershell query mysql” and there’s tons of results. http://www.thomasmaurer.ch/2011/04/powershell-run-mysql-querys-with-powershell/

  @Malos I must have been really under the weather when I escalated to the devs. I actually know the answer. Currently the way replication works due to a bug in lftp concerning only replacing changed bits (remember that one @tom-elliott? ), If a change or difference is detected between the source file and destination file, the destination file is deleted and the copy is re-started.

  There is going to still be a “trunk” branch and I’ll still be doing (albeit much less than in the past) work on the PHP side of FOG, but really limited to bug fixes and minor improvements. I don’t expect any new features to be added unless it’s to support some new functionality in regards to the new FOG Client that we find useful enough to be added to the current channel’s of FOG. As we get closer and closer to a functional element of FOG 2.0 (which will likely take a while) we’ll most likely give up postings to try to get our testers and other developers updated to test and report things.
