Utilizing Postscripts (Rename, JoinDomain, Drivers, Snapins)

Hi Gregg,
What version of fog are you using?
-
@Lee-Rowlett Sorry,trunk version 7709 i believe
-
@gwhitfield as you’re using /images as your driver location you do not need to mount a share as it’s already mounted, so /fog mount is irrelevant to you. as you’re only doing one arch or having both drivers on the image, i’m assuming as you commented it out, make sure your folder layout for drivers matches this for example a Windows 7 build OptiPlex 7010 would be:
“/images/Drivers/Win7/OptiPlex 7010” and all your drivers for the 7010 would be within that folderTry these and let me know how you get on

@Lee-Rowlett Seems like I’m very close. The image task completes and I get the following just before the machine restarts. Unfortunately no drivers are copied so the image fails to bootup since there’s no drivers in it:
/images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownload: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token '$' in\r'' 'images/postdownloadscripts/fog.postdownload: line 2: 'case $osid in * Mounting directory ............................Done * Mounting directory ............................Done * Changing hostname .............................Done * Task complete * Updating Database..............................Done * Rebooting system as task is complete Reboot: Restarting system -
can you send me both your fog.postdownload and fog.drivers file and i’ll take a look - (i mean physically send, not paste the code on here :-))
-
@Lee-Rowlett Sure, here’s the goods:

@Lee-Rowlett Success!! Evidently my fog.postdownload and fog.drivers files got corrupted by editing in Notepad. Thank you for sending me a clean version! Working like a champ. Also for purpose of posterity or future users, the name of the folder for each individual hardware type needs to exactly match the spelling and case of the “System Product” field in the “Inventory” for that machine (or type of machine):

I gotten this to make the edits to the unattend.xml but it still doesnt join the domain. Do you have a Windows10 Unattend.xml that i can compare where I went wrong?
-
@Greg-Plamondon where are you calling the unattend.xml from and how are u verifying the unattend.xml is beinf edited correctly? Also are is it x86 or x64?
-
@Lee-Rowlett I remoted in and took a look. Cleaned up the scripts a lot, with Gregs help (-- @Greg-Plamondon I grabbed some credit but it still mostly goes to you --). I asked Greg to post the finished scripts after generalizing them so his environment is safe. Hopefully you will like them, and others as well.
-
@Lee-Rowlett The unattend.xml is in the C:\Windows\Panther directory. I removed the option from my setupcomplete.cmd that deletes the unattend.xml, so after it boots I can take a look at it and the edits were made to it. Should I be editing the C:\Windows\Sytstems32\Sysprep\unattend.xml instead of the Windows\Panther ?
-
@Greg-Plamondon it should be in one or the other place. Panther is checked first. When you sysprep’d where did you tell sysprep to look for the file?
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

@Lee-Rowlett Thanks for the base scripts and ideas behind them.
@Tom-Elliott Thanks for helping me adjusting them for my needs.
@Junkhacker Thanks for the fog log script, you dont know how many time I have forgotten to delete the damn fog.log

i didnt i just ran sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /reboot
-
@Greg-Plamondon Then you must ensure that unattend.xml must be in panther or sysprep folder. Typically its good practice to specifically call out the direct path to unattend.xml file.
BTW, great scripts!! thanks for posting them.

Hi,
there is no need for having unattend.xml in a Special Directory, use /unattend:[FQPath] to Point Panther to the file.
Regards X23

@x23piracy I think most of us are aware of that. Even if we’re not it does ultimately make things simpler to just know where to find the “default” locations.
-
@Greg-Plamondon I’ve had issues in the past when I had unattend.xml in the sysprep folder that it would use that file regardless of whether or not I specified it. I’m guessing that’s your issue as well.
-
The beauty of the postdownloadscripts are that you can do whatever it is you need to do.
If we’re unsure of where to find the unattend.xml (or whatever you wanted to name it) you can use basic linux utilities to locate them.
For example, instead of:
#!/bin/bash hostadpwd="ADPASSWDHERRE"; #only downside to this method- this is the plain ad password unattend="/ntfs/Windows/Panther/unattend.xml"; [[ ! -f $unattend ]] && return dots "Preparing Sysprep File" rm -f /ntfs/Windows/System32/sysprep/unattend.xml >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to remove original unattend file" fi echo "Done" debugPause dots "Writing Computer Name" sed -i "/ComputerName/s/*/$hostname/g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to update originating unattend file" fi echo "Done" echo "ComputerName set to $hostname" debugPause [[ -z $addomain ]] && return dots "Set PC to join the domain" sed -i "/<JoinWorkgroup>/d" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to remove the Workgroup setter" fi sed -i \ -e "s|<Password></Password>|<Password>${hostadpwd}</Password>|g" \ -e "s|<Username></Username>|<Username>${addomain}\\\\${aduser}</Username>|g" \ -e "s|<MachineObjectOU></MachineObjectOU>|<MachineObjectOU>${adou}</MachineObjectOU>|g" \ -e "s|<JoinDomain></JoinDomain>|<JoinDomain>${addomain}</JoinDomain>|g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to update user, pass, ou, and domain setter" fi echo "Done" debugPauseYou could actually locate any unattend.xml file and make the edits to them with:
#!/bin/bash hostadpwd="ADPASSWDHERRE"; #only downside to this method- this is the plain ad password unattends=$(find /ntfs/ -iname "unattend.xml") for unattend in $unattends [[ ! -f $unattend ]] && return dots "Preparing Sysprep File" #rm -f /ntfs/Windows/System32/sysprep/unattend.xml >/dev/null 2>&1 #if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then #echo "Failed" #debugPause #handleError "Failed to remove original unattend file" #fi echo "Done" debugPause dots "Writing Computer Name to $unattend" sed -i "/ComputerName/s/*/$hostname/g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to update originating unattend file" fi echo "Done" echo "ComputerName set to $hostname in $unattend" debugPause [[ -z $addomain ]] && continue dots "Set PC to join the domain" sed -i "/<JoinWorkgroup>/d" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to remove the Workgroup setter" fi sed -i \ -e "s|<Password></Password>|<Password>${hostadpwd}</Password>|g" \ -e "s|<Username></Username>|<Username>${addomain}\\\\${aduser}</Username>|g" \ -e "s|<MachineObjectOU></MachineObjectOU>|<MachineObjectOU>${adou}</MachineObjectOU>|g" \ -e "s|<JoinDomain></JoinDomain>|<JoinDomain>${addomain}</JoinDomain>|g" $unattend >/dev/null 2>&1 if [[ ! $? -eq 0 ]]; then echo "Failed" debugPause handleError "Failed to update user, pass, ou, and domain setter" fi echo "Done" debugPause doneThis will enable you to make the same edits to ANY unattend file found. I think this way is a bit more dynamic, and we’re not having to delete any files. You can also add a nested loop system to scan ANY partition for this to make the edits.
The intent of the postdownloadscripts are to allow people to do whatever it is they may need to do without having to continuously update their own scripts (of course are more than welcome if you feel you need to). So think of the postdownload scripts as a way to enable a kind of mechanism to enable the admins to make their edits however they deem necessary.
