      Hello,
      Everything works great until I change IP of my Fog VM. I change IP in fog settings by doing ./installfog.sh. I can boot in PXE, log and choose what image to deploy. But I get this error:
      mounting 192.168.2.8:/home/fogproject/images/ on /images failed: permission denied

      I check showmount, it’s ok:

      I check permission, it’s ok

      And I try to modify .fogsettings :
      storageLocation=‘/images’ to storageLocation=‘’/home/fogproject/images’
      but no change.

      Any idea ?

        @SOSF2 Check out this doc https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/change-fog-server-ip-address there are a few other places you need to make changes

        Have you tried the FogApi powershell module? It's pretty cool IMHO

          @JJ-Fullmer Yes I already did that. Everything is changed with the new IP. And no problem to display the fog web page and the fog PXE menu.

            @SOSF2 Oh good.
            Just re-read some of your post and I have more questions

            Why did you move /images to the home path? I suppose it should work as long as the /etc/exports file on the server is exporting that path as an nfs share and that path has the proper permissions (which I see it does).

            What does /etc/exports say on your server?

              @JJ-Fullmer I don’t remember why I move /images to /home/fogproject/images, it was very long time ago… But there was surely a reason 🙂

              Here is the exports file:

                @SOSF2 OK I update this exports file with the 2 new location and it’s working ! Thanks. I thinking that this file was not updated with a new ./installfog.sh but it was…
