      Hi,

      This is first time I’m installing FOG and it seems I’m getting stuck on every step(Not being Linux person doesn’t help either)

      The question is that I’m following [url]http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/975-creating-images-for-multiple-hardware-fog-server[/url] to create an base image and not sure what step 4 does. Do I need to install FOG service and KB838079 or I can skip that part? I might be missing things but nothing in there seems something that I need. Maybe hostname changer if it automatically puts laptops to domain. Or is this something I can skip if I don’t need? Is there something there that I might be missing that would make life easier?

      Thank you

        that is an old guide. KB838079 is required anymore. The Fog service is required for some features of fog such as automatic hosthame chages, automatic adding to the domain, and deploying snapins (which, for example, i use to deploy antivirus after the computer is on the domain, and run scheduled software updates)

        i highly recommending using the fog wiki and forum instead of external guides

          Great! Thank you. Also, did you mean to say KB839079 isn’t required anymore? or KB839079 is required? Sounds like it isn’t required anymore but “is” and “anymore” together is confusing me a little.

          Also, deploy snap in sounds good but I’m using FOG in isolated network(off of domain and just using a switch to hook up laptops) I would think this isn’t going to work if that’s the case? So unless I plan to use hostname changer, automatic adding to domain(again isolated network wouldn’t apply here?) I wouldn’t need FOG service?

          Thank you again

            KB839079 - No longer required

            better ? 🙂

            There is a tool included with fog, the Fog Client, it is recommended to join your machines to your domain!
