[B][FONT=Tahoma]INSTALLING FOG SOFTWARE:[/FONT][/B][FONT=Tahoma]

The installation of FOG is fairly straightforward, once installed the bulk of configuration is handled from the Web GUI through your browser. There are a couple of further tweaks that can be done from the system side but they are optional depending on your environment.

Enter the following at your Ubuntu command line.
• cd /opt
• sudo wget [/FONT][URL=‘https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/latest/download?source=’][FONT=Tahoma]https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeghost/files/latest/download?source=[/FONT][/URL][FONT=Tahoma]
• sudo tar –xvzf fog_1.20.tar.gz
• cd fog_1.2.0/
• cd bin
• sudo ./installfog.sh
Follow the steps in the FOG installer wizard
• Choose Option 2 (Ubuntu)
• Choose N (normal)
• Press enter to leave IP address default
• Press enter to leave gateway default
• Press enter to leave DNS default
• Choose NO when asked to change default NIC
• If you already have DHCP configured, press NO to disable FOG DHCP
• Press Enter to acknowledge MySQL warning
• Set a password for MySQL when requested if you want (I left mine blank)
• Be awesome and send a notification to the FOG community!
FOG is now installed, we just want to check some of the MySQL settings real quick. wizard (skip this step if you left the password blank)
• sudo vi /var/www/fog/lib/fog/Config.class.php
• Set MYSQL_PASSWORD to the password you configured in the FOG
• Confirm MYSQL_USERNAME is set to root account
• sudo vi /var/www/fog/lib/fog/Config.class.php
• Set MYSQL_PASSWORD to the password configured in the FOG wizard
Congrats! FOG is fully installed!! [/FONT]

I see that there is a backup util for the fog server, is there a way to run that and have it point to a external hd that I have?

fredlwal

[quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 45582, member: 28155”]I will add that if the FOG server is on your production network, FOG can name & then join the computer to the domain FOR YOU, automatically![/quote]

I"m trying to run this command "./FOGBackup.sh [directory]
Where it says directory how do I get that to go to my external drive for doing backups?

Wayne Workman

If you’re running FOG on a Linux server build, it’s likely that the external drive is not automatically mounted.

Is the Ubuntu 14 a workstation/client install or the server install?

Can you access the external drive at all? If not, you’ll have to mount it…

Tom Elliott

You have to mount your external drive first. You mount to a specified directory. Something like /mybackupdrive

[code]sudo mkdir /mybackupdrive
mount [device/path/to/externaldrive] /mybackupdrive
./FOGBackup.sh /mybackupdrive[/code]

It is a workstation/client install and yes i can access the external drive.

Wayne Workman

Yeah then just use the code that Tom posted for script usage.

navigate to the directory for the backup script.
type:
[CODE]./FOGBackup.sh /mybackupdrive[/CODE]

[FONT=Consolas]So, if my external drive was mounted as “USB3_2TB” it would be something like this:[/FONT]

[FONT=Consolas][CODE]./FOGBackup.sh /USB3_2TB[/CODE][/FONT]

what’s the command to list [quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 45724, member: 28155”]Yeah then just use the code that Tom posted for script usage.

what’s the command to show me the name of that external drive in the command line? Bare with me i’m new to this.

Tom Elliott

My guess is you’re using a desktop variation of Ubuntu? Can you give us an output of [code]ls -l /{media,mnt}[/code]

its showing the external as Sda1

Wayne Workman

That doesn’t sound right…

fredlwal

When I followed the steps on this site
[url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOG_on_an_Isolated_Network[/url]

I’m getting an error "“Checking package apache2… failed!”

Try installing that manually.
[CODE]sudo apt-get install apache2[/CODE]

Then check the status of the install:
[CODE]service apache2 status[/CODE]

Post the output of these two commands, please.

Absolutely. [U]That’s part of the installation[/U]. Without it, stuff won’t work.

fredlwal

Now, that part is working, I just copied over 1 image from the exteral hard drive onto the server into the images folder , what steps do I need to take in order for the new server to see the image ? Also what do I need to do in so that the clients can boot on the network and pickup an ip address?
