      Sometimes I come across these “ghost” tasks—I have no idea how I end up with them.

        Unfortunately, the “Reset Encryption Data” feature doesn’t work very well for me. Right now, it seems like I have to press the “Reset” button during the cloning process every time I clone a PC. If I don’t, the Fog Client doesn’t work, and I have to go to the PC in person.
        To make sure the PCs are still usable, I’ve moved the steps for renaming the PC, connecting it to the domain, and installing the Veyon Client to c:\windows\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd. This makes the cloning process go more smoothly for me. I also install the Fog Client at the same time.

        Despite all these efforts, I’m not getting anywhere:

          Tom—I just can’t get this to work. I’ve been trying to set up a multicast with 6 PCs here: PC013CAD through PC018CAD. They’re all identical devices, and sometimes one set works, then the other. I think the problem is somehow with the client. In this log, I automatically installed the client after cloning (c:\Windows\setup\ … ), then uninstalled it and reinstalled it—but I still can’t get a connection.

            @kratkale I’m unsure if I follow:

            So if you reset encryption data, things will start and continue to work, but fresh after imaging it does not?

            Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

            Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

              I’m still testing to see if it works. I have a group of 6 PCs: PC013 through PC018.
              They are all identical PCs.
              I start the cloning process—reset encryption.
              3 to 4 PCs work perfectly, but 1 to 2 PCs cannot connect to the FOG server.
              The FOG client is now installed after cloning.
              On the next attempt, the other PCs work.

              I don’t see any systematic pattern either

                @kratkale Is it possible DHCP IPs are all used up and the device that fails doesn’t have a proper IP address to be able to even communicate with your FOG Server?

                It is very odd that one machine works where another seems to fail.

                Nope, because 401 isn’t the same as that’s a client side error saying “we failed to prove we can talk to the fog server.”

                  DHCP works perfectly—it runs on IP Fire—and this system has proven itself.

                  OK—I have a proxy server running. I’ve only specified my IT students’ HTTP server as a proxy exception. All HTTP pages running on the network are inaccessible to the students in their browsers because “the proxy is configured incorrectly”… Of course, this isn’t foolproof—but most students can’t access HTTP pages from IP Fire, Shellies, AP etc., this way. After all, they’re mechanical engineers, not computer scientists. I then set the proxy exceptions correctly in my browser on my computer and can work.
                  I’ll go ahead and add the Fog Server to the proxy exceptions.

                  If the website stays open for a while, there should be some way to tell that you need to log in again.

                  The tab at the top says “Zero”—the image below doesn’t load. Now you have to change the URL to the base URL, and then the login page will appear.

                    After cloning, all IP addresses are OK.

                      I’m finding all this back-and-forth here pretty confusing—can we structure our communication differently? I think there was a new message from you for a moment—but I don’t see it right now.

                          It seems that Machine 17 is the one having the problem with the FOG client—I can’t fix the issue there even by reinstalling it.

                          Why does the PC have so many network cards?
