      That SQL Statement will only find mac’s that are registered to multiple hosts. (Meaning there’s duplicate mac’s in the table.) This is not the case. As I’ve stated multiple times now, the problem is One of the MAC’s that is registered to the it4314 MAC already (not in pending) is in common with the other devices, causing those other devices to try to register their own pending macs AS it4313.

      This is why we need two systems (at least). We need it4313 and its ipconfig /all, and the other system (based on MAC) and its ipconfig /all.

      This is the only way we’re going to find what’s going on.

      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 from it4314 (it’s not it4313) my mistake and all adapted it 😉 i already posted it’s ifconfig, the other system, could this be potentionally every system in our network or only the ones having fog client running? afaik the client must be registered to send pending macs to fog right? If yes i have always approved pending macs so this system must be known by fog allready? If all this gets a yes why will wayne’s query not work?

        I have PDQ Inventory running so i can get a list of all macs easily.

        Regards X23

          @x23piracy Wayne’s query is looking for a Single mac be reported multiple times. This isn’t the problem you’re facing. The problem is a single mac, that’s associated to It4314 (sorry) is registered ONLY to 4314, and being used to check in. FOG is seeing it AS it4314 and registering the pending mac’s under that host.

          In essence, Wayne’s query is looking for something like:

          hmMAC                                    hmHostID
--------------                           --------------
00:01:02:03:04:05                        1
00:01:02:03:04:05                        3

              @x23piracy The good news is I only see 7 unique MACs in that list. Add those to the mac filter in the web interface.

              Also, how did you even get into this situation? Did you get some new devices recently? Image some new stuff? Create a new image in a VM? What caused this?

                @x23piracy Tom and I were chatting last week, and it was his impression that your issue may be related to a mac address for a virtual adapter like a microsoft virtual adapter.

                I think that your pdq inventory query only returns mac addresses for physical adapters (??). In that case these virtual ones would not be found. According to Tom the pending mac addresses come from the FOG client sending all discovered mac addresses to the FOG server.

                (this following is my personal opinion/) I feel its a flaw in the FOG client, in that it should ONLY send physical mac addresses and leave the virtual ones alone. Because its possible for usb/bluetooth/vpn/etc adapters to have soft mac addresses that could be generated each time a device is plugged in. (/my personal option)

                Its also possible if you don’t sysprep the golden image that these duplicate mac address are coming from and the same as the mac addressed defined in the golden image.

                Now that you might have a list of 7 or 8 from your initial query. Go to a number of them and dump the output of ipconfig /all > %hostname%_mac.txt (warning I did not test that command so user beware). compare these 7 or so systems to see if any mac address is consistent. If that is the case then that mac address is your filter address for FOG (at least from what I understand chatting with Tom).

                  @Wayne-Workman hell idk i was ill some days and not at work, then i came back and saw the pending macs after i got two new devices for new starters i woud like to image (deploy). Then i mentioned these lot of pending macs from it4314. but the two new devices have nothing todo with it for sure.

                  Sorry i have no idea what happened. i hate such problems 🙂 but i will figure that out.

                  @george1421 ipconfig /all > %hostname%_mac.txt will not destroy something, harmless 😉

                    @george1421 It’s more a fog 0.x design flaw that has been carried forward. I understand that @Joe-Schmitt is using UUIDs in the designs for fog 2.0 so this won’t be a problem in the future.

                      @Joe-Schmitt is there maybe a way to discard sending macs from virtual adapters with the current fog client, please? Maybe before 2.x?
                      @george1421 yes, it seems that your are right with pdq inventory, no macs for virtual adapters i didn’t mentioned that i was just wondering why there were some empty cells in the excel export, thats the answer.

                        This is harmless. What it does it this
                        ipconfig /all lists all of the network adapters with all data. You may be able to get just the mac addresses of all network adapters if you have powershell or VB skills. I was just looking at quick and easy.
                        > %hostname%_mac.txt sends the output of ipconfig /all to a file titled %hostname% of the computer and _mac.txt. Then you can manually review this file for like mac addresses. Tom gave you a clue to what the troubled mac address could be. You will need to be Shurlock Holmes and find it.

                          @Tom-Elliott @george1421 @Wayne-Workman i could get the desired info from most of the system i found with duplicate macs:

                          it3210: https://pastebin.com/NLU4uZjM
                          it3256: https://pastebin.com/4ek2esnT

                          What i found out so far:

                          00:50:56:C0:00:01 VMWare
                          00:50:56:C0:00:08 VMWare
                          02:80:37:EC:02:00 WWAN Device (H5321) Ericsson
                          00:11:6B:66:3C:89 still unclear (Systems are currently not connectable)

                          Edit:

                          I could Check it3394 for the 00:11:6B:66:3C:89 mac but the system does not have any device with that mac associated so what should i do know? Set the both vmware macs oon the filter list and also add the wwan device?

                          My pending mac list ist getting fuller and fuller actually there are more then 300 pending macs from it4314, i need to get rid of this.

                                @x23piracy You can do partial filters.

                                Meaning you could do:

                                00:50:56,02:80:37

                                so Any mac address that matches the prefix will be filtered.

                                  @Tom-Elliott ok i’ve shortened it to the first 3 octetts like you recommended. I’ve read the hint for the setting but i thougth filtering until mac change would be better, but i did what you told me 😉

                                    alt text

                                    argh oh nooo 😞

                                    I cannot find this MAC Adress (d2:b1:a5:d6:12:7c) on any MAC Vendor list, this sounds to me like a virtual adapter too.
                                    Would it be a good idea to also filter d2:b1:a5 without any research?

                                          @x23piracy You can look in the access log and hopefully see the host that applied this mac address.
