@Tom-Elliott Manually deploying a Snapin after cloning does not work—you must first manually restart the system. There is no Fog log even before the restart. The Fog Client was run using C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts\SetupComplete.cmd

Here, too, I’m just launching a simple snap-in—it would be cool if it also showed which snap-in it is. As I mentioned before, due to timing issues, I stopped automatically deploying snap-ins—they often didn’t work properly, even though they worked in the Command Prompt. From this, I concluded that there’s a timing issue between Windows Update… and the snap-ins. That’s why I’ve always preferred to do this manually.

Multicast. The version number does not show what fails. Queue a multicast task, start the clients, then post:

• the output of tail -n 40 /opt/fog/log/multicast.log
• a photo of one client screen

–public-web-cert. Correction to my last reply: this flag helps only when your web server sends a complete, publicly trusted chain. The flag removes FOG’s own CA from the check, and curl then uses the system trust store. That check also failed. So the system store cannot verify the chain your web server sends. Run this on the FOG server and post the output:

openssl s_client -connect fog.mm.htlwien10.at:443 -servername fog.mm.htlwien10.at </dev/null 2>/dev/null | grep -E '^ *[0-9]+ s:|^ +i:'

It shows who issued the certificate and which certificates the server sends.

Power management. The server sends the schedule in the same format as 1.5. The FOG Client runs it on the PC, at 18:55 PC time. Check that Power Management is enabled in FOG Configuration > Service Configuration and on the host. Then post C:\fog.log from one PC. The lines that start with PowerManagement show whether the client got the schedule.

Snapin after cloning. No C:\fog.log means the FOG Client service has not run yet. The server only queues the snapin. The client starts it. Add net start FOGService after the client install line in SetupComplete.cmd.

All Snapins. FOG shows All Snapins when a host has more than one snapin queued. The Active Snapin Tasks tab lists each snapin by name. The “/ of (/min)” text in the Progress column is a display bug. It is fixed in 1.6.0-beta.5346.
