FTP Storage Connection Failed

/var/log/auth.log

Sep 19 14:45:27 FOGMAN vsftpd[1]: pam_unix(vsftpd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ftp ruser=fog rhost=10.28.0.10 user=fog

I am having permission issues again but I’m not sure what I have done wrong. Is there a location which lists standard user and permission levels for the different fog functions such at file ownership and permission settings.

I followed these directions to try to fix the problem:

access: [url]http://fogserver/fog/management/[/url]
*** FOG Configuration ***
*** FOG Settings *** in the menu on the left
-> Replace the FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD fields under FOG settings

Then open the file:
/var/www/fog/commons/config.php - check the values of: TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD and STORAGE_FTP_PASSWORD
These MUST match the password you set above, if not write them properly in here
Finally reload of the service
/etc/init.d/vsftpd reload

I will have to try it again in the morning.

What I’d recommend for this, is to change the actual fog user password with:
[CODE]passwd fog[/CODE]

Make sure this password is then changed in the GUI under:
FOG Configuration (Other Info)->FOG Settings->FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD
[B]AND[/B]
Storage Management->All Storage Nodes->Click the node you’re having problems with->Management Password

That should fix it. At the very least, make sure the GUI FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD and Storage Node::Management Passwords are the same and correct for the fog user on the FOG server.
