FOG Service CA Certificate problem
-
I have a new Win7 Install in a VM, and I am getting “Failed to download CA Certificate” when I run the new FOG Service setup.
FOG version 5800.
Do I use the old version? -
Is the client looking at 10.0.0.51 for the installation or is it looking at “fog-server”?
-
umm good question… How do I check that ?
-
I have just added an entry to the DNS server too. I have no idea what I’m doing, is this correct ?
(I also don’t know if I need black out our domain) -

When you run the FOG Service installer, it is one of the options, the server address. Try to get it working with the IP first, then later you can sort out DNS.

@Wayne-Workman Ahhh, I didn’t take the time to read the installer options properly, yeah it works when I use the IP address.
So now with DNS settings… Do I just add an entry like in the pic ? Is the change on the network pretty quick or do the changes need to be propagated somehow ? -

It’s hard to tell from the picture, but I can see that the .local Top Level Domain is selected. Generally it’s not good in the long run to use the generic top level domains like .local See this for more details on best practices: http://serverfault.com/questions/402580/what-is-active-directory-domain-services-and-how-does-it-work
The entry looks right, but is you’re fog server actually named “fog-server” ? Maybe create an A record for it’s real name too?
Also - is DHCP configured to hand out this particular DNS server? Also - are the hosts in the environment set to automatically configure DNS or is DNS statically set?
On windows, you can use the
nslookup
utility to resolve IPs and names, you can also specify which DNS server to use.
