Login with USER first

@MagicLink Hi, can you connect a FTP client to the FOG server ?

[MagicLink]

i try with Filezilla and can’t connect with root or fog user (“LOGIN incorrect”). Winscp/putty works.

Can you post the result of : service vsftpd status

@MagicLink Please try connection using the command line client (localhost on the FOG server and remote from another linux PC if possible:

ftp 192.168.1.1
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.2)
Name (192.168.1.1:user): fog
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
230 Login successful.
Remote system type is UNIX.
Using binary mode to transfer files.
ftp>

On localhost, I have root instead of user :

root@debian:~# ftp 10.22.10.252
Connected to 10.22.10.252.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.2)
Name (10.22.10.252:root):

and if i enter root or fog, with the good password, i have this :

root@debian:~# ftp 10.22.10.252
Connected to 10.22.10.252.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.2)
Name (10.22.10.252:root): root
331 Please specify the password.

@MagicLink What?

When you sign in you set the username to FOG. The password for this user in FTP is usually what’s in the Storage Node Management Password area of the GUI. Another place it’s stored is in /opt/fog/.fogsettings.

[Sebastian Roth]

@MagicLink Better use the user ‘fog’ for FTP login because that is used by the scripts as well. The ‘fog’ FTP user password is not the same as the ‘fog’ web gui user password! As Tom just said the FTP password you find in .fogsettings (storageftppass) and/or in the Storage Node Management Password area of the GUI. Please try again with the console ftp command to see if login is successful using the correct credentials.

Re-reading you first post I am wondering about something. You said capture is working find but deploy is not!!! Usually people have FTP issues on capture…

[MagicLink]

It’ OK now, it works better i understand now. On our first install, we changed the password of the default storage node. So it’s not the best way, isn’t it ?
On our second install, we have understood that the password was generated automatically. And we finally understood that it’s not the same as the fog GUI.

Thank you very much, we 'll try to deploy.

@Sebastian-Roth We are on test and i remember having some issue with login FTP at the end of the capture. But we saw the image with it’s size on the GUI so we didn’t look for as we installed a second server to be sure of the automatic generation of the password’s storage node.

Sorry for my bad english, we continue our tests

[Sebastian Roth]

@MagicLink Please report back if things are working for you… Thanks!

[MagicLink]

@Sebastian-Roth yes the deployment feature works !
One question : the image are compressed when saved on Fog ? Our image size (on client) is about 5 Gib and on the dashboard, it’s about 3 Gib

[Tom Elliott]

@MagicLink Correct, they are compressed.
