        @george1421 Ok, so updated to trunk and I think it worked. A couple errors when trying the laptop.

        Both registering the host and trying to upload an image.

        It also passes the fog compatibility test, and pings the host fine under diagnostics.

            @blue_steel So you found that the fog (linux user’s password) was out of sync with what the FOG database had?

            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!

              @Tom-Elliott this is concerning, since those service pages should have ensured FTP credentials are correct.

                @Wayne-Workman I’m confused isn’t that exactly what they did?

                  @george1421 Indeed, the linux user password here

                  vi /opt/fog/.fogsettings

                  Was not correct.

                    Well, that’s arguable. Anything set in the .fogsettings file is the ultimate definition of “correct” on your system. Everything is based around that file. All updates follow that file. It was correct as far as fog was concerned, it’s up to you to adjust that as you need.

                      Ok, so the fog server is up and running and everything is getting images again after the file fix. Except for the N22. Will try different kernels and see if that helps.

                        @blue_steel If you have the trunk version installed you have the latest kernels. So no need to work in that area.

                        Now that you are on a current build, can you refresh our memories what is failing with the N22?

                            @blue_steel I know I’m asking for this again, but we have a different set of contexts to deal with (trunk version of fog). If you run a compatibility test does both the hard drive and network adapter pass?

                                @Developers Any idea on how to debug this. It looks like its failing in the registration script (fog.man.reg) in the FOS Engine.

                                I’ve looked at the code between
                                echo " * Starting host registration"
                                and
                                [[ $exists != "#!ok" ]] && handleError "Unable to register host: $exists ($0)\n

                                There is nothing that jumps out at me other than calls to urls like http://${web}service... where if $web doesn’t contain a trailing slash the call would fail.

                                @blue_steel cal you tail the apache error log and see if its throwing an error when you try to register. If it is an invalid path the apache error log should trap it.

                                  @george1421 tried sudo tail -f /var/log/apache2/error.log and nada.

                                  I do now get this
                                  error

                                    other than calls to urls like http://${web}service…

                                    If ARP is screwed like ours is, it would fail on a web call to a remote network. Remote being a different broadcast domain where a router must be traversed.

                                      @blue_steel For this specific model I want you to do this .

                                      1. Manually register this host
                                      2. Create a capture or deploy (depending on what your goal is). But when you create the capture/deploy task make sure you tick the check box to create a debug capture/deploy.
                                      3. Then PXE boot the target computer it should drop you to a linux command prompt on the target computer after a few presses of the enter key. (this is the debug console)
                                      4. From the linux command prompt see if you can ping the FOG server.

                                      If you can then I have a few more commands to run. But I want to see of the FOS engine can connect to the fog server with a ping.

                                          @blue_steel Are you using the fog server with web setup as a DNS Name? For example, the storage node is defined with an IP of say blue_steel.blue_steels_domain.com? If so can you actually ping a system using a hostname itself?
